Golgoth thinks he controls most of the populated Earth, ruling through military might and fear, but he can't even trust his own super-powered staff

Over a decade ago writer Mark Waid and artist Barry Kitson launched Empire, a different kind of superhero comics that instead focused on the villain’s successful plan to take over the world rather than the usual “a team of superheroes save the world.” The creative team recently returned for a new series, Empire: Uprising, and now new readers can catch up with an all-new trade paperback that collects the entire DC Comics miniseries.“Empire exploded out of the gates years ago as a breath of fresh air with its exploration of what happens when the villain actually wins,” said Chris Ryall, IDW’s Chief Creative Officer/Editor-in-Chief

“Waid and Kitson proved then to be masters of exceeding peoples’ expectations, and both are even stronger storytellers now, as Empire: Uprising will show

Add to that our admiration for what Waid has accomplished at Thrillbent with a wide array of talented creators and I couldn’t be happier to see Thrillbent here as part of the IDW team.”
