Kickstarter Announcement: Stephen Bissette’s TYRANT

Comics industry legend Stephen R. Bissette, the artist behind Alan Moore’s landmark run on Swamp Thing, and co-creator of John Constantine, brings a long lost comic series back from the prehistoric era.

Tyrant is a 4-issue mini-series created by Bisette and originally released back in the min 1990’s. The series follows a tyrannosaurus rex as it fights to survive in the Cretaceous period.  Now, he is re-releasing the series as a hardcover edition with a ton of extra material.

This Kickstarter edition will consist of two versions:

<
  • Stephen R. Bissette’s TYRANT: The Original Art Edition—an oversized hardcover with 100-plus pages
  • Stephen R. Bissette’s TYRANT: The Complete Edition—hardcover with a slipcase and over 200-plus pages

These hardcovers will also include all of the backmatter from the original 4-issue run as well as additional illustrations from Rick Veitch, Jim Rugg (also designing the book), paleontologist Dr. Michael Ryan and tons of art that has never been collected.

Be sure to head over to the Kickstarter page to be ready when this project launches next month!
