"This is exciting. Some of my all time favorite artists gathering for new creator-
owned work. Bring it, Gaijin."—Brian Michael Bendis, writer of POWERS and
DAREDEVIL.
"To my mind, the Gaijin boys are some of the most underappreciated (and
flatulent) creators I have encountered in this industry. It's incredibly exciting to see them
on a concept worthy of their time, effort and collective talents. I will be there for THE
RIDE."—Paul Jenkins, writer of SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN
"THE RIDE has all the makings of an incredible comic book: An innovative
concept with potential for limitless variation in directions that transcend genre. But most
importantly to me, it's loaded with some of my favorite creators in the business! I can't
wait to get my grubby little mitts on this one."—Mike Wieringo, artist of FANTASTIC
FOUR.
