PORTLAND, OR (April 16, 2024) – AFTER 15 YEARS AND A MILLION BULLETS... THE SIXTH GUN IS REBORN! Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, is proud to reveal your first look inside s for the long-awaited return of the Eisner Award-nominated world of THE SIXTH GUN this July! Three decades after the staggering conclusion of the original series fantasy icon Michael Moorcock calls "an epic in its own right,” the six occult weapons that touched off a clandestine war for the fate of humanity are about to be reforged for a brand-new century in THE SIXTH GUN: BATTLE FOR THE SIX #1 (of 3) – reuniting acclaimed co-creators Cullen Bunn (Harrow County) and Brian Hurtt (The Midnite Show) on July 23rd as they introduce an all-new starting point for the supernatural American epic as told across three, extra-sized, ad-free prestige format issues!

In 1866, out of the ruins of the failed Confederate uprising, a race to claim six objects of unfathomable occult power began, thrusting the fate of humanity into the hands of an ordinary young woman and a hard-nosed gunslinger who, together, were our last, best hope to forestall Armageddon.

They prevailed, but at a terrible price.

But that was then—this is now. Three decades later, as the gears of a new millennium begin to grind on the cusp of the 20th century, The Six, immortal weapons of ultimate destruction are about to be REBORN once more—as they have been countless times across the eons. This time, however, a brigade of familiar fighters lies in wait to meet The Six’s nigh-limitless power head on . . . in a race against a secret cabal that wish to harness its unspeakable power to incept a new century of war, genocide, and suffering.

Only one can survive to claim victory. THE BATTLE FOR THE SIX starts now!

New series… New century! Celebrate 15 years of the one of the most pivotal series in the history of creator-owned comics as Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt return to unleash Hell on Earth on July 23rd in THE SIXTH GUN: BATTLE FOR THE SIX #1 (of 3) – featuring staggering cover art by Brian Hurtt, Valeria Burzo (Soul Taker), and Christopher Mitten (The Autumn Kingdom), and more!
