Desperadoes:
Quiet of the Grave
Gideon Brood and his eclectic band of Desperadoes return in
a collection of the 5-issue HOMAGE COMICS miniseries that was nominated for International
Horror Guild and Bram Stoker awards! DESPERADOES: QUIET OF THE GRAVE is a 128-page trade
paperback from acclaimed writer Jeff Mariotte and legendary artist John Severin (who
provides a new cover), featuring an introduction by Brian Keene horror writer,
novelist and Stoker Award-winner (for the nonfiction Jobs in Hell).
QUIET OF THE GRAVE picks up the story of the Desperadoes
Brood, Jerome Betts, Abby DeGrazia, and Race Kennedy as they relax in the
small town of Luttrell in the Arizona Territory following the events of their first
appearance in A MOMENT'S SUNLIGHT. With a price still on their heads for an accidental
shooting in New Mexico, however, their peace is naturally short-lived. When Brood must
kill a young would-be bounty hunter, his anger with the danger he's put his friends in
forces him to try to leave them behind. Of course, neither Brood nor his friends give up
on anything easily, and soon Race and Abby are hot on his trail, while Betts searches for
his new object of affection
now the bait in a real hunter's trap. But while a chance
encounter with a slick-talking treasure hunter reunites them in time to turn the tables on
their hunter, what waits for them back in Luttrell is much, much worse and bullets
just won't kill it.
