Elisa Cameron has come to discover more about herself than she once thought possible. As the tortured specter Ghost, she knew only that she endured great pain because of her supposed death and wanted others to suffer for it as well.

Modeled after products that were popular in the 1930s and 1940s, the new statuettes being produced by Dark Horse are designed and manufactured consistent with earlier ?syroco?-style figures. Produced in a limited edition of only 500 hand-numbered copies.

JUDGE DREDD: DREDD VS. DEATH STATUE
On sale Jan 9
11.5" tall
Includes certificate of authenticity
Limited to 1,000 numbered statues for worldwide distribution
$250.00
First 4 Figures and Dark Horse Comics are proud to present an ongoing collection inspired by one of the world?s greatest comic book characters, Judge Dredd. Patrolling the mean streets of Mega City One, a polluted megapolis of seven hundred million, Judge Dredd stands as one of the most iconic and long-lasting characters to emerge from the British comics scene. Originally published in the pages of Fleetway?s 2000 AD magazine, some of the best British writers and artists have turned their hand to Judge Dredd.
This statue is inspired by one of the most famous art pieces, a cover by artist Greg Staples. The swirling form of Death is locked in savage combat with the tough-as-steel Dredd. Two relentless adversaries are frozen in time at a climactic moment in a fatal struggle.
THE SAVAGE SWORD COLLECTION BUST #2: KULL
On sale Feb 6
7" tall, 8" deep, 8.5" from side to side
$59.99
Dark Horse will be creating new graphic stories of Kull, and has enlisted one of today?s brightest talents, Andy Brase, to do covers. Comic Book Art Gallery called him ?the most amazing talent to enter the comic book field in the last decade,? and we don?t disagree.
Sculptor Tony Cipriano used Brase?s visual design of Kull as reference, and we think fans of Robert E. Howard, comics art, and sculpture will agree that his powerful and regal interpretation of King Kull makes for one of the finest mini-busts in quite some time.
