From the World of Minor Threats Library Edition Volume 1

The hit creator-owned comic series from Patton Oswalt and Jordan Blum, showrunners of Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K on HULU and and superstar artist Scott Hepburn (Tom Morello’s Orchid), comes this new deluxe hardcover edition collecting the first two Minor Threats tie-in miniseries.

The multiversal misfits and the punk rock super-bug finally get their due in this oversized, deluxe hardcover collection from the world of Minor Threats!

A support group of capes—The Alternates—struggle to reclaim their purpose after returning from a mind-bending pocket dimension. Haunted by trauma and tempted by newfound powers, they’ll face a reality that no longer seems to have a place for them.

Then, in Barfly, the Lower Lair’s infamous humanoid mutant fly confronts the truth when he discovers what happens to a henchman when he no longer has anyone left to hench for?

This deluxe library edition hardcover features the complete The Alternates miniseries and the full Barfly saga, along with a sketchbook section and pinups from some of comics’ leading artists.
