About
The long-awaited remastered edition of the acclaimed graphic novel - including an introduction by award-winning comics artist Walter Simonson (Thor, Star Wars, Elric).
In Breathtaker, all love withers and dies... but for Chase Darrow, it is literally the kiss of death.
Chase Darrow is a beautiful weapon. The US government gave her a sexual power that makes her utterly alluring - the perfect weapon for espionage. Yet to kiss a man leaves his lifeforce drained and means that no one can love her without paying the ultimate price. But Chase is now on the run from The Man - another government creation and the first superhero. All machismo, he is sent to bring Chase back, but which weapon will prove the most powerful - love or death?
The Breathtaker Collection features the original four-part cult classic remastered and reprinted, so readers can experience the original Breathtaker story in an all-new light. Also includes a new 16-page section of Breathtaker art previously showcased in an exhibition.
PLUS the special collection also includes an all-new full-length comic featuring The Man, by Marc Hempel (The Sandman, Heavy Metal, Lucifer, Hellraiser) and Mark Wheatley (Johnny Quest, EZ Street, Frankenstein Mobster).

"Breathtaker is the sound of breaking glass in the morning, the smell of diesel in the afternoon, the frisson of violence in the evening, and the delight of love and death in the night. This is why I read comic books."
