Hellshock comes to an end July 27
Hellshock, Jae Lee’s classic saga, will finally be completed and collected this July when Image Comics and Dynamic Forces present Hellshock: The Definitive Edition.
For years, Hellshock, the first creator-owned project from superstar Jae Lee and one of the most popular and highly acclaimed comic-book projects of the nineties, has remained unfinished.
Now, Dynamic Forces and Image Comics are proud to announce that this great unfinished series will finally be completed -- and collected for the first time -- in one volume.

Also included are another twenty-two pages of original unpublished material: the alternate beginning to HELLSHOCK!
Hellshock: The Definitive Edition will also include a new introduction by comics great Jim Lee (Batman; X-Men; WildC.A.T.s), a cover gallery, unpublished sketches and art, and a new afterword by Jae Lee describing the creative process that led to HELLSHOCK.
"Hellshock is my baby. I've been nurturing it all these years,” Lee said in the release. “And now it's finally ready."
Dynamic Forces president Nick Barrucci said he was proud to have helped bring Hellshock back to comic-reading audiences.
"Jae is not only a top talent in this business, but he’s also a close personal friend," said Barrucci. "Working with him on this project, and presenting a completed HELLSHOCK to the fans has been a truly rewarding experience."
In addition to the trade paperback, Image and Dynamic Forces plan to release a hardbound edition of the Hellshock: The Definitive Edition for the discerning collector.
