Eisner-nominated writer Mark Waid (The Amazing Spider-Man, Kingdom Come), who co-created Hunter-Killer with Top Cow founder and CEO Marc Silvestri in 2005, will pen the story. Providing art will be rising superstar Kenneth Rocafort (Madame Mirage, Astonishing Tales), who drew the final four issues of Season 1 of Hunter-Killer.

“I can’t wait to work with Kenneth again,” raved Waid. “He blew my mind when I first saw his Hunter-Killer pages during the first run. To be brutally honest, it’s rare that I see a new artist whose work doesn’t feel redundant or a clone of something else already out there. Kenneth’s energy knocks me out.”

“This is a dream come true to draw one of my favorite teams of all time, Cyberforce,” said Rocafort, who was a fan of Top Cow books well before he started drawing for them. “And to combine that with the characters of Hunter-Killer, which I love to draw, and working with Mark again, this is an exciting project for me.”

Cyberforce is a team of unique individuals granted with superhuman abilities via cybernetic implants created to be the pawns of a corrupt and evil corporation. Having defeated their creators, they united to fight the battles no one else could. Hunter-Killers are a group of Ultra Sapiens—a genetic super race living in secret because they are walking weapons of mass destruction - who monitor and police their own to ensure the safety of planet Earth. Details of the crossover storyline are being kept under wraps for now.

“The past two summers, we’ve focused on the more supernatural aspects of our universe with First Born and Broken Trinity,” said Rob Levin, VP Editorial for Top Cow. “Next summer, we’re going to shine a light on our tech-based heroes. Mark Waid is one of my favorite writers out there. And Kenneth... that guy is unstoppable. The work he’s doing is going to melt eyeballs, and dare I say it, crack the Internet in quarters. Quarters!”

Narberth, PA – They’ve created the dreams that mark our nightmares, forging an unforgettable world of dark fantasy, horror and suspense. After 30 years of accruing in-depth interviews, award-winning author Stanley Wiater has created the ultimate video library of horror icons as Smash Vision presents DARK DREAMERS™:Volume One. This four-DVD set, featuring interviews with over 30 writers, directors, producers, actors and SFX artists - including one of the last interviews with the legendary Forrest J Ackerman - will be available on January 27th. The series will continue with future volumes throughout 2009.

“Without a doubt, DARK DREAMERS™ represents the most comprehensive DVD catalog of interviews with some of the greatest talents the horror world has ever known,” said Steve Kaplan, Production Manager, Gotham Distributing Corporation, the distribution company for Smash Vision. “Only a dark dreamer himself could have put together such an iconic compilation, and Stanley Wiater is such a person, placing himself within the masters of horror inner circle. There’s no question that any true horror fan will need to have this volume in their collection.”

From Forest J Ackerman to Clive Barker; John Saxon to Wes Craven; Peter Straub to Larry Cohen... the artistic world of horror would not exist without these dark dreamers. Why did they enter this dimension? How did they make their mark? What is it about their craft that drives their passion? Respected journalist and horror aficionado Stanley Wiater spent three decades interviewing his renowned subjects, and their stories will entertain, enlighten, and perhaps even scare the dark dreamer in us all.

Stanley Wiater has been acclaimed as "the world's leading authority on horror filmmakers and authors" (Radio/TV Interview Report), "the master journalist of the dark genres" (World of Fandom), and "the top horror journalist in North America for the past 25 years" (Rue Morgue). His 14 award-winning books - and more than 700 interviews, articles, short stories, profiles, comic book scripts, reviews, and essays - have been translated into 10 languages.

Smash Vision is a newly-formed home entertainment company, dedicated to acquiring and distributing quality, unique DVD titles with collectors in mind. The wide array of programming will include classic films and television shows; new independent feature films; cult “gems;” and documentaries.

“(Starz is) becoming – if they’re not already – the best in the genre business with comprehensive documentaries on the slasher and vampire genres, the history of black cinema and many more, but this one will hold a special place in the hearts of every fan-boy out there,” said RogueCinema.com.

From the silent era to today’s blockbuster, this fast-paced documentary examines the techniques, reveals the secrets, and emphasizes the impact that special effects makeup has had on filmmaking for more than a century. Before CGI effects became the norm, special effects makeup was often accomplished through invention, ingenuity and, in some cases, sheer luck!

This in-depth documentary features exclusive interviews with some of the biggest names in Hollywood filmmaking, including Wes Craven (A NIGHTMARE ON ELMSTREET, RED EYE), John Carpenter (the original HALLOWEEN, THE FOG), Eli Roth (CABIN FEVER, HOSTEL), George A. Romero (the original NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, DAWN OF THE DEAD, DAY OF THE DEAD), John Landis (AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON, INNOCENT BLOOD), Frank Darabont (THE GREEN MILE, THE MIST), Robert Rodriguez (FROM DUSK TILL DAWN, PLANET TERROR), Mick Garris (MASTERS OF HORROR), Tom Savini (CREEPSHOW), Dick Smith (THE EXORCIST) and Academy Award winner Quentin Tarantino (KILL BILL Vol. 1 and 2), as well as clips from such classic horror and fantasy films as FRANKENSTEIN, THE EXORCIST, PLANET OF THE APES, THE THING, GRINDHOUSE, SIN CITY, TRANSFORMERS, THE HOWLING and many more.
