Common Grounds Comes Together for New TP
COMMON GROUNDS TPB (Nov 2004)
week of 9/13/2004Troy Hickman's Common Grounds mini-series may be over, but the coffee-&-doughnut shop where good guys and bad guys take their time off is still open, and readers can order a hefty helping of heroes and villains this month in the Common Grounds TP (SEP041574, $19.99) from Image Comics/Top Cow Productions.
Hickman began exploring the off-hours of super-beings in his original mini-comic Holey Crullers, which won him numerous admirers among critics, readers, and fellow creators. Common Grounds has expanded Hickman's readership base dramatically, and readers who haven't already done so should take advantage of this opportunity to examine the human sides of these superhumans.
Written by Hickman and illustrated by a stellar line-up of superstar artists -- including Dan Jurgens, George Pérez, Carlos Pacheco, Ethan van Sciver, and others -- the 144-page collection will include all 13 stories from the mini-series, featuring memorable heroes, villains, monsters, and other beings in stories loaded with humor, heart, and poignancy. From Speeding Bullet to Grondar the Unbelievable Monster from Planet X, Common Grounds' menu of heroes and villains offers something for every readers' taste.
