WE3 TPB
Grant Morrison (w), Frank Quitely (a)
Vertigo Comics

Liz says: Perhaps Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s greatest joint-masterpiece is the heart-wrenching story of three domesticated house-pets turned into prototype combat weapons by the government, codenamed WE3. With armored exoskeletons and heightened nervous systems sophisticated enough to allow for rudimentary attempts at speech, they are as lethal a force as any battalion. After being exhaustively tested on, they’re scheduled to be destroyed. What results is the journey of three frightened, formidably weaponized animals on the run from their makers, leaving destruction in their wake and searching for safety and a place to call home.

This handsome matte black paperback includes supplemental materials such as sketchbook and character design pages as well as commentary from the creative team. A beautiful printing worth upgrading your current edition for if you already own it, and absolutely worth picking up if you don’t. I highly, highly recommend this – best of the best.
