Hitman by Garth Ennis and John McCrea Omnibus Vol. 2 - (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The quintessential DC Comics work of Preacher co-creator Garth Ennis and his frequent collaborator John McCrea concludes in this second omnibus collection of their irreverent classic Hitman!

While writer Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon were changing the creator-owned comics game in the mid-1990s with DC Vertigo series Preacher, Ennis also put his sardonic stamp on superheroes with Hitman, teaming with acclaimed artist John McCrea to introduce superpowered ex-military operative Tommy Monaghan, who used his X-ray vision and telepathy as a hired gun on the streets of Gotham.

Hitman stands as one of the most unique and beloved comics of its era, and this omnibus volume features the second half of the ongoing series, along with a comprehensive collection of spin-offs and related stories--including Hitman's encounters with the Justice League and Lobo, plus subsequent sequels All-Star Section Eight and Sixpack and Dogwelder: Hard-Travelin' Heroz. Alongside the initial Hitman omnibus, readers can enjoy the complete collection of Ennis and McCrea's bloody, cynical, hilarious, and heartwarming epic!

This volume collects Hitman #34-60, Hitman/Lobo: That Stupid Bastich #1, Superman 80-Page Giant #1, Justice League/Hitman #1-2, Convergence: Harley Quinn #2, All-Star Section Eight #1-6, Sixpack and Dogwelder: Hard Travelin' Heroz #1-6 and DC: The Doomed and the Damned #1.
