Sophie Bangs is Promethea: a living embodiment of the imagination, "the dream that waking does not end." As the signature heroine of Alan Moore's AMERICA'S BEST COMICS, Promethea's Eisner Award-winning adventures have fueled one of the most remarkable comic-book series in recent memory. Now the first six issues of the acclaimed series are collected in PROMETHEA BOOK ONE, a trade paperback edition of the sold-out hardcover, topped with a new cover by J.H. Williams III & Mick Gray. In these incredible, genre-bending tales of the imagination (written by Moore with art by Williams & Gray, with one passage by guest artist Charles Vess), readers meet Sophie Bangs - a college student in a weirdly futuristic New York - as she does research for a term paper on Promethea, a mythical warrior-woman who is reinvented over and over through the centuries. Along the way, she receives a strange warning to give up her inquiries...a warning she only begins to understand when a deadly shadow creature tries to kill her for getting too close to Promethea's secret. That secret transforms young Sophie into the greatest Promethea of all, but she must quickly master the secrets of her heroic predecessors - as well as those of the realm known as the Immateria - or fall prey to Promethea's ancient enemy. PROMETHEA BOOK ONE is a 176-page trade paperback from AMERICA'S BEST COMICS $12.70 USA / $18.95 Can
