Leaping onto center stage from the wings of comics
history comes that dazzling Master of Elusion, foe of
tyranny, and champion of liberation--the Escapist.
Operating from a secret headquarters under the boards
of the Empire Theater, the Escapist and his crack team
of associates roam the globe performing amazing feats
of magic and coming to the aid of all those who
languish in the chains of oppression. The history of
the Escapist's creators, Joe Kavalier and Sam Clay was
recently chronicled in Michael Chabon's
Pulitzer-Prize-winning novel The Amazing Adventures of
Kavalier & Clay. Now the best of the Escapist's
adventures are collected into a giant 80-page
anthology for all to enjoy.
Don't miss out on this thrilling first issue of the
quarterly anthology Michael Chabon Presents...The
Amazing Adventures of The Escapist, featuring an
original story penned by Michael Chabon as well as the
first new story in seven years written and drawn by
comics creator Howard Chaykin
