Murder Hobo is back with more wild and deadly tales! At a local tavern, brave warriors in The Lands of High Adventure are becoming more aware of several "heroes" who are not what they seem. While sharing war stories, these adventurers realize they've each invited into their parties rogue agents who put them directly in harm's way, often resulting in dead heroes and stolen treasure. We meet three more Murder Hobos: a hot-headed half-demon, a poo-flinging Orc, and an invisible fishman. These agents of Chaos have different methods, but share the same goal, satiating their sordid desires by drinking, drugging, whoring ... and keeping all the loot for themselves.

The Picture of Everything Else #1
Cover A: Kishore Mohan
Cover B: Nathan Gooden
Cover C: Adam Gorham
Vault Comics is thrilled to announce The PICTURE OF EVERYTHING ELSE, a dark new literary horror story from star writer Dan Watters (Coffin Bound, Lucifer), artist Kishore Mohan, letterer Aditya Bidikar (These Savage Shores, Blue in Green), and designer Tim Daniel.
As the 20th century dawns, art promises to change the world...and steep it in blood. A rash of impossible killings sweep through Paris, tearing the rich and beautiful apart in their beds. When two art thieves stumble upon the portraits of the victims damaged in the exact same manner they died, it appears the man who once painted the immortal portrait of Dorian Gray has returned—with darker plans for future works. From the minds of Dan Watters (Coffin Bound, Lucifer, Deep Roots) and Kishore Mohan comes a haunting balance of depravity and beauty.
“The Picture of Dorian Grey has always been a favorite of mine, both as a novel and a concept,” said Watters. “But I think it’s been squandered a little when it’s been revisited. We’ll often see Dorian crop up in other mediums — the immortal, beautiful young decadent with his picture hidden in the attic. But what of the man who made the painting? There was a man who made art which rendered its subject immortal. What if he started to change his works, and change the world with them? What if he sought to make the world a paradise- or a hell? Maybe art could get us there. Maybe it still will.”
"I’ve always been fascinated by how art influences the world, not by merely translating experiences across space and time, but by actually altering opinions, normalising taboos, instilling new values, and changing every damned thing that it touches," added Mohan. "And having grown up on my mother’s collection of Classics Illustrated, later discovering all of my favourite characters in Alan Moore’s League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and now being a huge fan of shows like Penny Dreadful, Ripper Street, and The Alienist, I never stopped being enamored by the late 19th and the early 20th centuries. Dan and I have been wanting to create something together for a quite a while and when he told me the story of ’The Picture of Everything Else’ I remember thinking to myself that here’s a story that’ll let me explore all that I’ve wanted to with my craft. I get to actually let my craft mess around with my favourite time period in all of history!"
THE PICTURE OF EVERYTHING ELSE #1 hits store shelves in December 2020, and will launch with variant covers by Nathan Gooden and Adam Gorham.

Ranx: The Complete Collection
Heavy Metal Entertainment announces the release of Ranx: The Complete Collection, a 208-page omnibus featuring the entire RanXerox library.
Ranx, the Italian science fiction graphic novel series by Stefano Tamburini and Tanino Liberatore, follows a bizarre antihero, Ranx, a mechanical cyborg made from discarded photocopier parts. After an unfortunate short circuit, he becomes the victim of fabricated feelings of love for his girlfriend Lubna, a brat, who is permanently high and has an abominable temperament. In a world that is a parody of contemporary society, featuring decadence, consumption, and selfishness, Ranx lives on as the epitome of true love. He is the last “knight in shining armor”. Ranx is a colossus in a world of savages, but don’t look for hidden meaning in these epic stories: they are merely a pretext for a lethal dose of cyberpunk, gratuitous violence, and eroticism. The amazing hyper-realistic art of Liberatore may shock and disturb you.
This book features the entire RanXerox collection that was serialized in Heavy Metal Magazine from 1983-1999, “Ranx in New York”, “Happy Birthday Lubna”, “Be Bop Lubna”, “I, Me, Mine Incorporated”, “Amen” and “I, Robot”.
This collection also includes never before seen early strips, “Ranx The Thug” and “Modern Dance”. A Gallery contains covers, pin-up art and sketches.
Ranx: The Complete Collection will be hardcover book, 8.5x11 and will retail for $29.99.
“Tanino Liberatore. Italian. Acid-fueled son of Richard Corben. His dwindling output is still crowned by his RanXerox.” — Guillermo del Toro
“Ranx is a punk, futuristic Frankenstein monster, and with Lubna, they are a bizarre Beauty and the Beast. This artist and writer team have turned a dark mirror to the depths of our id, and we see reflected the base part of ourselves that would take what it wants with no compromise, no apology — and woe to the person who would cross us. But it is all done with a black, wry, satirical sense of humor.” — Richard Corben
“The Ranx character is a punky, post-apocalyptic android built from spare Xerox machine parts. All RanXerox stories were luxuriously illustrated with bizarre, violent and, to put it lightly, unchaste story lines.” — TwitchFilm
“— violent — often repulsive — yet Beautiful.” — Julie Simmons-Lynch
"Pure creativity without prejudices, that is Ranx. Stefano Tamburini and Gaetano Liberatore created an insane and sick future with a touch of innocence and black humor, a timeless gritty masterpiece, a grotesque acid tale which goes beyond the extreme violence. This visionary book, without any doubt, is the best example of a total artistic freedom" — Ladrönn
