Following the 20th anniversary edition of Paul Pope's Heavy Liquid, Image is proud to release Pope's follow-up, 100, in a newly remastered edition collecting all 5 issues, a gallery of the wraparound covers, unseen art and sketches, and a stunning wraparound cover colored by Yuko Shimizu. Time Magazine listed both Heavy Liquid and 100 among their 100 most important science fiction graphic novels of the decade, and fans and critics alike regard 100 as some of Pope's most emotionally charged and literary work, akin to Los Bros. Hernandez's Love and Rockets and the films of Wong Kar-wai.

Blending the worlds of sex work, MMA fighting, and urban menace, 100 asks-is it possible to find love, safety, and hope in this dystopian American megalopolis? Collects 100 #1-5.

Faith is drawn into a new world when she attends a party at the home of world renown artist Louis Thorn. It's a world of opulence, excess, and sensuality-and something darker that she can't put her finger on. There is something... curious about these people, a darkness or shadow just at the edge of reason... and maybe it is exactly what Faith is looking for.
All those little shadows and shapes that Faith catches at the peripheral of her vision start to take shape. There are omens. These events and details have Faith unsettled, but she moves past them with her attention drawn to something new: the Devil.
Faith. Sex. The Devil. Faith likes to dabble with magic. Her friends think it's cute-and not just a little off-putting, but it's part of her charm and her warped search for purpose in a world that makes too much sense. But she's a true believer and knows there is a power within her reach. She's right, of course. It just took a while for that magic, that temptation, that unknowable thing to find her . . . In short- Faith is bored as hell. And Hell has noticed. New York Times bestselling writer Brian Azzarello (100 Bullets , Batman: Damned) and artist Maria Llovet (Loud) with Eisner Award winning artist Paul Pope on covers coalesce in a story of self-exploration, eroticism, and maybe even love.

In his search for the one artist skilled enough to render heavy liquid into a perfect sculpture, S finds himself battling deadly psychopathic foes as well as the inner demons of addiction. If he can survive these physical and mental trials, S just might discover the shocking secret behind heavy liquid, and a love he thought lost forever. Collects Heavy Liquid #1-5.
