THIRD VOLUME AVAILABLE THIS WINTER!

Negative Burn was an anomaly, merging together genres, pushing boundaries and allowing the top comic book talent in the world an opportunity to experiment and tell stories that they wanted to tell. When told that a black & white anthology title without a defined theme would never last beyond five issues, Negative Burn exceeded all expectations by running 50 issues and ending of its own decree, garnering numerous industry award nominations along the way. The biggest stars in the industry (Brian Bolland, Alan Moore, Warren Ellis, Moebius, Peter David, P. Craig Russell, etc.) co-existed side-by-side with the next wave of superstars (Brian Bendis, David Mack, Paul Pope, John Cassaday, Frank Quitely, Jeff Smith, Terry Moore, Paul Jenkins, Mike Wieringo, etc.) to produce perhaps the most eccentric anthology title in the history of comics.
