“With two of us growing up in the age of Heavy Metal, it makes sense that Justin and I set out to build a world far outside the safety of mainstream comics, one that embraces adult material and violence without ever feeling gratuitous,” said Jimmy Palmiotti. “We wanted a place where the brutality has weight, the characters feel real, and the story makes sense on its own harsh terms. Our goal was to give readers someone to care about in a world that doesn’t care back. And with Pier Brito’s explosive visual style driving every page, we’ve created an adventure that we think looks and hits like nothing else out there.”
Justin Gray added, “Jimmy and I spent many years creating comics together, so it’s exciting to see one of our creator-owned projects reaching a new audience through Mad Cave. I think readers who enjoy beautifully illustrated sci-fi crime stories with a strong atmosphere and character work are going to find a lot to enjoy in Denver.”
“Working on Denver was a blast. Jimmy and Justin’s vision of this massive Tower of Babel-like city in the middle of the sea, visually, I find very inspiring,” said Pier Brito. “There is a feeling of a broader world behind this story, which I hope intrigues the reader. It was a big challenge and a great opportunity to work on a book where I can help visualize such a scenario, from pencils to final color.”
