Book Description
In the pages of Gold Digger, Fred Perry created a haven world of modern day swords and sorcery called Jade, along with the dimension-spanning peacekeepers that patrolled its borders called the Edge Guard. Five Guardian Werecats protect the Northern Lands of Jade, able to summon the most devastating elemental weapons to pacify any threat to its people, ever vigilant of the potential corruption that wielding such power can bring. Yet the Old Ones tell tales of the Dark Edge Guard hiding within the ranks of heroes, waiting for their chance to strike. Safrita Cleo, a lowly office clerk full of dreams, bears witness to their struggles. In the heart of this darkness and despair, when conjoined hearts and souls are mixed, interchanged, and torn apart, Cleo is surprised to find herself asking the question if love can trascend death and rebirth. This graphic novel collects the entire seven-issue Gold Digger: Edge Guard mini-series from Radio Comix. This publisher is a new client to Diamond Book Distributors!

A small-time gang lord has found himself dealing with a big-time outbreak of supernatural weirdness...and without any allies to call on and nothing left to call his own, John doesn’t have much choice about taking a paycheck from one of London’s worst, or accepting the help of one of the gang lord’s would-be foot soldiers.
