Battle Chasers (1998) Complete

is an American fantasy comic book series by Joe Madureira, launched in April 1998. It was one of the most popular American comics series in the late 1990s. Battle Chasers was one of the initial three comic book series published under the Cliffhanger label, which Madureira founded with fellow artists J. Scott Campbell () and Humberto Ramos () for Jim Lee's Image Comics imprint, WildStorm. When Wildstorm was sold to DC Comics in 1999, the Cliffhanger titles moved along, and issues 5 through 8 of Battle Chasers were published by DC, until Madureira left the publisher, and released Battle Chasers #9 through Image Comics. The last issue, #9 was published in September 2001 and had a cliffhanger-ending that was never concluded, as Battle Chasers #10 (scheduled for November 2001) was never released because Madureira canceled it. Joe Madureira left the comic industry and placed the series "on hold" to pursue a career as a video game designer. This compilation is complete to the best of my knowledge. Despite being unfinished, still great stuff. And I love Red Monika.
