IMAGE AND TOP COW CELEBRATE FREE COMIC BOOK DAY

Something for every reader in IMAGE 20 and WITCHBLADE: UNBALANCED PIECES

This annual Free Comic Book Day, Image Comics will be celebrating twenty
years of success in revolutionizing the comics industry with two new
comics. Both provide great examples of what Image excels at providing: a
diversity of genres and styles -something for everyone.



Both IMAGE 20 and WITCHBLADE: UNBALANCED PIECES will be available to the
public at comic book stores on May 5, 2012, and they’re absolutely
free!



IMAGE 20 is jam-packed full of exciting stories from new, upcoming
comics and returning favorites. Titles include G-MAN from Chris
Giarrusso, Robert Kirkman’s GUARDING THE GLOBE from Phil Hester and Todd
Nauck, Mike Allred’s IT-GIRL AND THE ATOMICS from Jamie S. Rich and
Mike Norton, CRIME AND TERROR by Steve Niles and Scott Morse, NEAR DEATH
by Jay Faerber and Simone Guglielmini, and REVIVAL from Tim Seeley and
Mike Norton.



In “Witchblade: Unbalanced Pieces,” new and lapsed WITCHBLADE fans will
get the perfect chance to try out the brand new creative team, Tim
Seeley and Diego Bernard, and a fresh new direction of Top Cow’s
flagship title. Since the events of ARTIFACTS, Sara Pezzini’s entire
life has been altered in immeasurable ways, not the least of which is
she’s living in a new city and has a new career. But one thing remains
constant - the Witchblade. For fans who get hooked, “Unbalanced Pieces”
continues in WITCHBLADE #155 - and they can pick up the WITCHBLADE:
REBIRTH VOLUME ONE trade paperback for only $9.99.
