WarAngel: Book of Death (Brian Pulido’s…)

(Avatar, 2004)
™ and © Avatar Press, Inc.

Avatar Press publisher William Christensen challenged Brian Pulido to come up with “something truly over-the-top.” Pulido responded with the genre-busting War Angel. War Angel’s aggressively amoral anti–heroine Serenity drinks hard, fights hard, and wears a bikini top with spike-like horns where her nipples would be.

She lives in a future America called Necromerica populated by supernatural beings, strange critters, and even some normal humans. Serenity herself appears normal enough (for a Pulido girl), except for the black feathered wings sprouting from her back, which she is sometimes depicted without.

This preview volume contains a five-page character intro story, wherein Serenity blows up Seattle’s Space Needle to avenge the death of a man she just met yesterday and can barely remember today, six pages of finished artwork from issues #1 and #2, and four pages of cover art by Walter Geovani, Ron Adrian and Juan Jose Ryp.
