GRAPHIC NOVEL RIGHTS 2022 Rebellion is one of the most exciting companies in the UK: a video games publisher and developer, a rapidly expanding multi-media brand, and a boundary-pushing publisher of comics and fiction. 2000 AD celebrates its 45th anniversary this year, and we have a host of beautiful collections of its foremost artists and writers to mark this illustrious milestone, including John Wagner, Carlos Ezquerra, Brian Bolland, and Gerry Finley-Day. We’re especially excited to present the 2000 AD Encyclopedia , packed with all you need to know about the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, from A.B.C. Warriors to Zombo . Looking for superheroes old and new? Turn to page 8 and enjoy the electro-charged escapades of Louis Crandall in The Steel Claw, the capers of Cathy, everyone’s favourite feline crusader, as she battles with crooks and supervillains in The Best of Cat Girl , and the adventures of Black Beth, skilled fighter and sworn enemy of all that is evil, in Black Beth: Vengeance Be Thy Name ! Whether you check in on the law enforcers of crime-plagued Mega-City One and the ever-expanding, truly dystopian universe of Judge Dredd , or the quiet, rural village of Harrowvale that tries to hide its terrible past (a sacrificial cult that unleashes the wrath of an old, bloodthirsty god) in Thistlebone, you’re in for a brilliant read. Lastly, we’re offering a sublime array of action-adventure collections this year. Rebellion has teamed up with Spiteful Puppet and Chinbeard Books to bring you the entire series of strips of Robin of Sherwood . Written to complement the hugely popular 80s television show that retold the legend of Robin Hood, this richly ilustrated comic sees the fabled outlaw, Robin of Locksley, outwitting the evil Sheriff of Nottingham and Guy of Gisburne, all against the mystical backdrop of Sherwood Forest. Equally fantastical is our brand-new five-issue mini-series, Hawk the Slayer, based on the cult sword-and-sorcery movie classic of the same name. Written by Garth Ennis and drawn by Henry Flint, this thrilling comic continues the struggle between the righteous Hawk and his evil brother, Voltan. We’re looking forward to your interest!
