Jamie Delano and David Lloyd’s adventure taleTheTerritory collected for the first time!
Dark Horse is pleased to present an exciting early work by two of comicdom’s top talents. Jamie Delano is one of the industry’s top writers, best known for his work on the modern horror classic Hellblazer, and David Lloyd is best known as the artist on Alan Moore’s provocative V For Vendetta.
Mysteriously marooned in an unnamed ocean, a man named Ishmael is rescued by pirates and sold into slavery. His past is a blank. Equipped only with courage, a talent for action heroics, and the inspiration of a half-remembered love, he must flirt with the sinister tentacles of Hydracorp to win his freedom. The Territory is a land of wonder and fear; hidden in its dark heart, a haunting truth that Ishmael is driven to discover. But there are no maps to The Territory. Those who would explore it must draw their own.
The Territory is written by Jamie Delano with art by David Lloyd. It arrives on sale March 8 with a retail price of $14.95.
