11/15/04 - Thank you to all of our fans for keeping in touch with us and waiting patiently for the release of the Deity/Catseye crossover story. We are excited to announce that Requiem is being released in February/March 2005 from Image Comics as DEITY: REQUIEM, a 56 page one-shot.

As many of you know, this book is a crossover story between our Deity and Catseye series and is penciled by Michael 0’Hare (currently of Jubilee and Peter Parker: Spiderman for Marvel).  He is a fantastic artist and has created an amazing look for Deity. Michael brings a new energy to the series. This project originally started a few years ago, was put on hold and never finished--until now. Michael has now completed all the pages and we are thrilled to show you some of the colored and inked pages right here.

Now that we are back with Image, it is time to finish the story--and everyone seems to have been waiting for it to come back!  We've had an amazing response from fans and retailers alike so far.

Requiem ties up loose ends with the Deity and Catseye stories and opens the door to the future.  Next on the roster is Robert Napton's prose project, DEITY: THE NOVEL which will also be released by Image, in mid 2005.

All Deity back issues are being re-solicited through Image again in preparation for Requiem.  Please visit your local comic book store to place your order or check out our cool stuff section right here!

Enjoy the new Requiem pages and stay tuned for more details in the next few months.
