Mark Waid is Incorruptible

Mark Waid is a good guy. Such a good guy he's incorruptible. Which ties in nicely to the brand new comic from Boom! Studios by the same name, set to debut this December. And it just so happens to be loosely tied to Irredeemable. Managing Editor Matt Gagnon seems to think that the book is no less intense in it's approach to life. "While you don't need to be reading IRREDEEMABLE to enjoy this new series, INCORRUPTIBLE continues that complex study of caped morality at the end of the world," says Managing Editor, Matt Gagnon. "Readers will be shown a shockingly different perspective of The Plutionian's world, where a super-villain, pushed by an insurmountable force, dares to be INCORRUPTIBLE. " Incorruptible focuses on supervillain Max Damage, a man with an epiphany on the same day that The Plutonian destroyed Sky City. Max Damage changed his name to Max Daring and flipped sides in an effort to bring change to the world. The series will be written by Mark Waid and feature interior art by Neil Edwards. John Cassaday and Tim Sale will each be doing 50/50 split covers, with an even rarer 1 in 10 incentive cover by Jeffrey Spokes. The Diamond Code for ordering is OCT090784. Full press release below.
