Image Comics will bring FEAR AGENT\u2014the critically-acclaimed, science-fiction odyssey by Rick Remender, Tony Moore, and Jerome Ope\u00f1a\u2014back to print as a series of master edition trade paperbacks. Each trade paperback will collect ten issues of the seminal, pulp classic and will feature never-before-seen scripts, variant covers, designs, and concept art.<\/p>\n

Beginning with FEAR AGENT: FINAL EDITION, VOL. 1, which hits stores this April, veteran fans and new recruits alike can experience the whiskey-soaked, laser-scorched life of Heath Huston, the galaxy\u2019s last hope.<\/p>\n

\u201cI chronicled the hardest ten years of my life through Heath Huston and his drunken plight to save eternity and couldn’t be more excited to share our love letter to EC Comics with a new audience,\u201d said Remender. \u201cThe series is drenched in love from Tony Moore, Jerome Ope\u00f1a and some of the best artists in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

FEAR AGENT first made waves when Remender famously described it, in an interview with Comic Book Resources, as their response to a sci-fi genre that’d \u201clost its stones.\u201d Heralded as an addictive homage to the popular sci-fi adventure of the \u201950s, FEAR AGENT was the series that catapulted Remender\u2019s reputation for action-packed sci-fi with heartstring-tugging character building. It laid the groundwork for such hits as, BLACK SCIENCE co-created with artist Matteo Scalera, LOW co-created with artist Greg Tocchini, and his re-teaming and co-creation with Ope\u00f1a on SEVEN TO ETERNITY.<\/p>\n

Moore added: \u201cRick and Jerome are the collaborators of a lifetime, and we all poured our blood, sweat, and tears into these pages, sometimes literally. This series was a hard-fought labor of love for the genre and the pantheon of mid-century comicbook titans who continue to inspire us the most, and I personally could not be more proud of it.”<\/p>\n

The FEAR AGENT adventure unfolds when down-and-out alien exterminator Heath Huston stumbles upon an extraterrestrial plot to commit genocide against the human species, he must put down the bottle and resume his role as a peacekeeper…the last Fear Agent.<\/p>\n

Ope\u00f1a added: “Working on\u00a0Fear Agent<\/em>\u00a0was some of the most\u00a0fun I’ve ever had in comics and it’s great to see the book get the recognition it deserves all these years later.\u00a0I’m eternally grateful to Rick and Tony for inviting me along to collaborate with them and it’s an honor to have my name associated with the book in any way.”<\/p>\n

FEAR AGENT: FINAL EDITION, VOL. 1 (ISBN: 978-1-5343-0797-1, Diamond Code FEB180517) hits stores on Wednesday, April 25th. The final order cutoff for comics retailers in Monday, March 12th. It hits bookstores on Tuesday, May 1st and will be\u00a0available for pre-order at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, IndieBound, Books-a-Million, and Indigo.<\/p>\n
