Dynamite Entertainment has announced the upcoming release of the Jennifer Blood Omnibus, collecting the first four volumes of the story together for the first time. This 744-page book comes from the creative team of Garth Ennis and Al Ewing and is filled with the pulse-pounding action that made this one of Dynamite’s bestselling series.

The story follows Jennifer Fellows, your average suburban housewife. Every day she makes breakfast, takes the kids to school, cleans the house, maps for an hour or two, makes dinner, puts the kids to bed, and kisses her husband goodnight then hopes the drugs she gave them in their dinner keep them asleep until morning. But at night, meet Jennifer Blood, ruthless vigilante. Every night she stalks the underworld on a personal vendetta against organized crime, determined to obliterate the parasites and scum who run the city’s rackets. But can she keep her dual life separate?

Ennis is known for creating Preacher, which has been turned into a live-action series for AMC, which recently wrapped its third season; he also created The Boys, which is also being adapted for a television series set to premiere on Amazon Prime. Ewing continued on Jennifer Blood after Ennis passed him the baton, and is known for his work on The Immortal Hulk. The omnibus collection also includes the work of artists Adriano Batista (Jungle Girl), Kewber Baal (Jeepers Creepers), and Eman Casallos (KISS: The Demon). The softcover trade features a cover by Stephen Segovia (Detective Comics).

Jennifer Blood has been one of our bestselling series since she was first created back in 2010,” Dynamite President Nick Barrucci said. “Garth Ennis continued to turn the genre on its head by giving us a character who is at heart a cold-blooded killer that has taken on the burden of having a family, and the tapestry was expanded by Al [Ewing]. Through Garth and Al Ewing’s stories we were able to strike a chord with our readers and I’m excited to have all of these great stories collected into an omnibus for existing fans to revisit and new ones to discover.”

The Jennifer Blood Omnibus will be solicited in the January issue of Diamond’s PREVIEWS catalog, and is scheduled to ship in March 2019.
