Contract is finally available in stores: a "contemporary-crime black-comedy weird-a-thon" in a "post-pulp" tradition, about a hitman whose victims refuse to stay dead.

Hit the cover to find out more.

Praise for Contract:

"A tour de force..."

- The Times

"Spurrier is very, very good... If you're itching for an unflinching, inventive, (disturbingly) well-researched stab at British crime fiction with a horrific twist, Contract will most certainly satisfy your faintly unnatural lusts."

- SFX

Gutsville is the breakout comic published by Image, with art by the hideously talented Frazer Irving.

It's the heart-warming tale of a quasi-Victorian survivalist society festering in the colossal intestines of a mind-fuckingly enormous seabeast.

Hit the cover to find out more.

Praise for Gutsville:

"GUTSVILLE is the most unusual, thought-provoking, off-beat... [and] best book I've taken a chance on in a long time."

- Ain't It Cool News

"It's a beautiful book... It's a completely mental book.  It reads like China Mieville fisting the corpse of Herman Melville."

- Warren Ellis
