A praised graphic novel by author Mark Wheatley and artist Mark Hempel, Brestaker will return to print in a new collectible edition to be released by Titan Comics this September. Originally published in 1990 under the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics, Wheatley has been interested in remastering books since the late 2010s. Well, thanks to the help of Titan Comics, it’s finally happening.

Chase Darrow is a beautiful weapon. Experimented by the US government, Chase was given the power to make her completely attractive. But kissing a man means that he will drain his life-saving force and no one can love her without paying the ultimate price. She is obsessed with finding true love, but her lovers literally age and die at her touch. All Matismos, he is sent to regain Chase, but which weapon proves to be the most powerful – love or death?

In addition to the original four-part cult classics, the Bretaker Collection features comics of all-new origins by Mark Hempel (Sandman, Helliser, Lucifer) and Mark Wheatley (Johnny Quest, Ez Street, Frankenstein Mobuter). Remastered and reprinted to experience the original, breathtaking Taker story in a whole new light. The remastered collection also includes a new 16-page section of Breathtaker Art, previously exhibited at the exhibition, and an introduction from the legendary Walt Simonson (Thor, Star Slammers, Manhunter, X-Factor).
