PORTLAND, Ore. 09/14/2023 — Image Comics is pleased to present an extra-length one-shot containing the four, five-page Shift stories—which were originally released in IMAGE! 30th Anniversary Anthology—alongside a brand new five-page story by Shift creators Kyle Higgins and Daniele Di Nicuolo. This exciting one-shot out of the Massive-Verse is set to prime readers for Shift’s upcoming appearance in Radiant Black‘s THE CATALYST WAR and will hit shelves this December from Image Comics.
He’s tangled with Radiant Black and fought alongside The Dead Lucky—but who’s the man in the suit, and how did he assemble his team of contractors?

Higgins & Marcelo Costa’s breakout hit Radiant Black took superhero storytelling to new heights when it launched in 2021—but Radiant Black isn’t the only character inhabiting the growing Massive-Verse. Each character has a different story to tell, different adversaries to face… and they each occupy a very different corner of this shared superhero universe. Now’s the time to get into the Massive-Verse.
