Part of Series

The trailblazing Vertigo title, which stretched the limits of comics storytelling, is finally back in print! From writer Peter Milligan (HELLBLAZER, X-Statix) and artist Ted McKeever (DOOM PATROL, FAITH), the 4-issue miniseries took superheroics to their most risqué. Murder, sex, amorality – anything is permissible with the suit on. THE EXTREMIST follows three ordinary people who succumb to the allure of a mask and a costume and all the power that comes with it, creating a shocking and controversial exploration of the nature of freedom and sexuality.
