Avatar Press' New Releases for 12/3/14:
Crossed +100 #1
Alan Moore returns to monthly comics in epic fashion with Crossed+100!
Set 100 years in the future, Moore has created a whole new world and
history with a stunning attention to detail. Examining how
civilizations rebuild and how generations grow, Moore weaves a rich
tapestry of humanity evolving under extreme hardship, all of which is
lushly rendered by Gabriel (Ferals) Andrade. Archivist Future Taylor
leads a salvage team working to rebuild the historical record of the
original Crossed outbreak. She’s seen them in videos, but never any

handful appear, and the blood begins to flow. All is not as it seems as
a horrific mystery unfolds and once again Alan Moore redefines the
medium.
