Dark Horse Comics presents From the World of Minor Threats: Welcome to Twilight , a four-issue anthology series exploring the down-on-their luck supervillains and heroes that call Twilight City home. Each issue will focus on a different character both familiar and new as seen through the eyes of legendary comic creators like Matt Fraction, Michael Allred, Brian Michael Bendis, Soo Lee, Gail Simone, Gene Ha, Gerry Duggan, and Mark Torres. These stories are created in collaboration with Minor Threats co-creators Patton Oswalt and Jordan Blum.

Written by Matt Fraction (Sex Criminals , Hawkeye ), illustrated by Michael Allred (Silver Surfer, Madman), colored by Laura Allred, and lettered by Nate Piekos (Minor Threats , Black Hammer ), Welcome to Twilight #1 follows washed-up, bird-winged actor Benjamin “Brock” Bronkowicz who isn’t a superhero, but played one on TV. Now Brock spends his time on the superhero convention circuit - trying to cash in on his fleeting fame, drinking away his problems as he fades into obscurity. But a chance encounter with a mysterious woman empowers Brock to fight for a life he once thought was over. Can Brock learn to fly again? Or will his vices and the ruthless gangsters on his tail clip his wings for good?
Issue #2 will be written by Brian Michael Bendis (Masterpiece , Jinxworld ) and illustrated by Soo Lee (Carmilla: The First Vampire , The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos ), issue #3 will be written by Gail Simone (Uncanny X-Men , Women of Marvel ) and illustrated by Gene Ha (Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons ), and issue #4 will be written by Gerry Duggan (Timing/Luck , Falling in Love on the Path to Hell ) and illustrated by Mark Torres (Phantom on the Scan , Cold Spots ).
