As part of a comprehensive licensing deal concerning Eduardo (100 Bullets, Batman) Risso's Borderline, Dynamite Entertainment today released images and information concerning the first Borderline TPB Collection (JUN052908).

"We're very happy to be a part of this, and to be working with the creative team on this project," explained Dynamite Spokesperson J. Allen. "Eduardo is such a talented creator, and this work is so powerful, that it's going to blow the fans away! This great series has never been published in North America, and Dynamite is proud to bring this explosive series to a new audience for the first time."

Borderline has been described by Harvey and Eisner Award winning creator Risso as a sci-fi post apocalyptic story, that both openly shows the miseries and kindness of Humankind. "This work is very strong and very personal", Risso explained. "I am very happy to be working with Dynamite to offer this series in the United States and the rest of the world!"

The first 160 pages collection will retail for $19.99 and is the first in a series that will collect the entire series - featuring the work of Eduardo Risso PLUS the work of writer Carlos Trillo - for the first time even in English.

Dynamite has plans to produce hardcover collections at a later date. Stay tuned for more information on this program.

BORDERLINE VOLUME 1 TPB -- By Carlos Trillo and Eduardo Risso

Known for his moody, powerful artwork, Eduardo Risso has commanded a legion of fans from his work on 100 Bullets (with writer Brian Azzarello who also provides an exclusive intro to this collection) and Batman (also with Azz), among others.

But until now, fans have never experienced the raw power and vision of Borderline (with writer Carlos Trillo)!

Borderline, which was originally published in Italy, is a 600-page epic created by Risso and Trillo, with whom the artist has previously worked on a slate of other projects. This powerful piece of graphic fiction has never before been available in the United States in English.

Volume 1 (of 4 projected volumes in total) weighs in at an impressive 160 pages filled with Risso's gorgeous artwork and Trillo's fantastic ideas and script.

This is a must-have for every fan of comics and art!
