Along with fellow classics like The Sandman, Animal Man, and Hellblazer, Shade, the Changing Man--a subversive reinvention of a character created by comics legend Steve Ditko--helped usher in the era of DC's Vertigo imprint, populated by stories with a distinctly mature sensibility and fearless creative vision.
Now, Shade, the Changing Man--written by acclaimed scribe Peter Milligan and with art by Chris Bachalo, Mark Pennington, and more--is collected in the omnibus format!
Shade, the Changing Man starts with Kathy George's encounter with Shade's arrival on Earth from his home dimension of Meta--in the body of her parents' killer. From there, Shade and Kathy journey into America's collective unconscious to find the evil known only as The American Scream. From there, it's a mind-bending journey into the heartland of a nation, in the most celebrated work of Milligan's prolific career!
Collects Shade, The Changing Man #1-50; Who's Who #7 and #15, and a story from Vertigo Jam #1; Vertigo Gallery: Dreams and Nightmares #1, along with a brand-new introduction by Peter Milligan.
