Trish’s loss began the day her brother died. The grief that followed has taken so much more, and her vengeance means losing all the happiness she found when she went away to school. The question on everyone’s mind: will making Harvey pay for what he did be worth it? The drama deepens in this modern crime story by Dave Wielgosz (Man-Bat) and artist Tadd Galusha (Godzilla: Rage Across Time), with a stunning main cover by the master of crime comics and Whiteout co-creator Steve Lieber.
Dave Wielgosz is a comic book writer who was born and raised in Holyoke, Massachusetts, currently living in Los Angeles. Showdown, co-created and drawn by Tadd Galusha, is his first long-form creator-owned project. Prior to this he wrote 2021’s Man-Bat drawn by artist Sumit Kumar and contributed stories to comic book anthologies including Batman: The Brave & The Bold, EC’s Cruel Universe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Black White & Green, Hello Darkness, and Superman: Man of Tomorrow.
Tadd Galusha is a Pacific Northwest comic creator currently operating in “the last frontier” of Alaska. A Kubert alum, he spent his early days in the industry working alongside artist legends Steve Lieber and Ron Randall in the Portland, Oregon comic scene. After cutting his teeth on TMNT, Godzilla, and the like, 2019 marked a breakout year with the release of his prehistoric epic and first creator-owned graphic novel, Cretaceous. Tadd has since been walking the line of independent and mainstream comics, working on various titles while on occasion dipping in and contributing visual elements to film and commercial projects. He is currently collaborating with writer Dave Wielgosz and the amazing Ignition Press team, providing interior line art on their new creator-owned series Showdown.
