We’re big comic book nerds here at ITS and are especially big fans of Mitch Gerads, artist of The Punisher and The Activity. Recently, Mitch announced another upcoming series he’s working on called The Sheriff of Babylon and we can’t wait to check it out!
Baghdad, 2004. Florida Police officer-turned-military contractor, Chris Henry is tasked with training a new Iraqi police force. When one of his trainees ends up dead, Chris is forced to team up with Nassir, the last remaining cop in Baghdad. Pulling the strings to bring them together is the mysterious Sofia, an American-educated Iraqi who has returned to take control of the city’s criminal underworld. This miniseries is a thrilling wartime crime drama told amid one of the most tumultuous times in modern history.
The Sheriff of Babylon is a new eight-issue miniseries pulled from Grayson co-writer Tom King’s real-life experience as a CIA operations officer and is illustrated by Mitch Gerads, co-creator of The Activity.
The Sheriff of Babylon will be available for purchase December 2nd and if you’re interested in reading this, tell your local comic shop you want to pre-order from Vertigo Comics today!
