About Jeff Hawke: Overlord
MEET THE SPACE PILOT WHO MIXES BRAINS WITH BRAWN!
Jeff Hawke Collector’s Library Editions!
“Intriguing storylines and terrific art.” —DownTheTubes.net
“An exhilarating mix of whimsy, hard science fiction and stunning draughtsmanship.” —Dave Gibbons (Watchmen)
“I’m once more transported into the strange and wonderful (and funny) world of Jeff Hawke, in my view the very best sci fi comic strip of all time and space.” —Brian Bolland (Judge Dredd, Fables)
Jeff Hawke is not your average space-hero. Focused on reasoning, diplomacy and moral virtues instead of brute force, he frequently finds himself to be the ambassador — rather than the saviour — of mankind. His universe is populated with alien species that meet humankind by accident or for commerce, but hardly ever for invasion.
Widely considered one of the most important sci-fi comic strips ever published, Jeff Hawke is a benchmark in intelligent, adult-oriented storytelling and is credited as having had a remarkable influence on a number of hugely respected writers and artists!
Jeff Hawke: Overlord [Titan Books, 22 February 2008, $19.95] is the first volume in a new series of collector’s library editions from Titan, bringing together four timeless Hawke tales: Overlord, Survival, Wondrous Lamp and Counsel for the Defense.
The subtle wit of author Willie Patterson makes the strips’ plots and characters as fascinating as they are amusing, and artist Sydney Jordan’s highly expressive style fully captures the strangeness of the weird and wonderful aliens of Jeff’s universe. Featuring cover art from the acclaimed Brian Bolland, a brand new introduction from co-creator Sydney Jordan, plus amazing background material created exclusively for this book, this first edition provides a rare treat for science fiction fans.
Sydney Jordan co-created Jeff Hawke along with ex-RAF friends Eric Souster and Jim Gilbert. As author, Willie Patterson led the strip to what many consider its “golden age”.
