Written and illustrated by Paul Chadwick. Dark Horse Books, 2005. Over seven feet tall & weighing over 1,000 pounds, Concrete is a force to be reckoned with.

Concrete Volume 2: Heights
(Ref: C2)   

Concrete Volume 2: Heights
Written and illustrated by Paul Chadwick. Dark Horse Books, 2005. Big as a boulder and strong as an ox, he's Concrete, seven-feet of stony celebrity. That he's a government-created cyborg is the cover story, but in truth he's the mind of one Ronald Lithgow trapped inside a rocky shell of alien origin. Possessing powers allowing him to scale the highest mountain unaided or peel back the roof of a car like a pull tab, he is yet denied the simple human pleasures of fragile flesh.

The return of Paul Chadwick's award-winning Concrete has ushered in a resurgence of interest in the acclaimed series that Harlan Ellison called "...probably the best comic being published today by anyone, anywhere." This value-priced volume collects Concrete issues #6-10; Concrete Colour Special, the short stories: 'World Beneath the Skin' and 'Brighter', and a gallery of hard-to-find Concrete illustrations. 208 pages. Soft Cover Black & White 6" x 9" (15cm x 23cm) ISBN: 1593074204

(Ref: C5)   

Concrete Volume 5: Think Like A Mountain
Written and illustrated by Paul Chadwick. Dark Horse Books, 2006. Being a celebrity has its benefits . . . and its costs. Due to his status as the world's most unusual travel writer-being a thousand pounds of walking, talking rock will do that-Concrete is approached by a group of radical eco-warriors to see firsthand and write about their efforts to save old-growth forest.

What begins as a lark soon turns into a harrowing struggle, and Concrete must decide whether to dispassionately observe or to join these people who would risk anything, even life itself, to save the planet.

Concrete Volume 6: Strange Armor
(Ref: C6)   

Concrete Volume 6: Strange Armor
Written and illustrated by Paul Chadwick. Dark Horse Books, 2006. A troubled man seeking spiritual renewal in the wilderness experiences a wholly unexpected rebirth-as a walking monolith, half a ton of animate stone able to perform astonishing feats of strength and endurance but forever denied many of life's fundamental pleasures.

As Concrete, Ronald Lithgow becomes an overnight celebrity and the focus of dark government operatives desperate to keep the secret of his metamorphosis from the public. Concrete must struggle with the loss of his humanity while discovering, perhaps for the first time, what it truly means to be human. A powerful, emotional story . . . If you're not reading Concrete, you should be. 192 pages. Soft Cover Black & White 6" x 9" (15cm x 23cm) ISBN: 159307560X

Concrete Volume 7: The Human Dilemma
(Ref: C7)   

Concrete Volume 7: The Human Dilemma
Written and illustrated by Paul Chadwick. Dark Horse Books, 2006. Life as Concrete knows it is about to change forever. Former speechwriter Ron Lithgow returns as the title character in Paul Chadwick's critically acclaimed and award-winning miniseries. Trapped in an alien's rock-hard body, Lithgow is an accidental celebrity whose high profile is being courted by a front-page CEO. Though Concrete believes overpopulation to be an important issue, does he want to become the spokesperson for a controversial population control program? While Concrete mulls this generous proposition over with his biologist, Maureen, his long-time aide Larry Munro mulls over an entirely different sort of proposal. Life and violent death take centre stage in this compelling new collection from an industry-renowned creative master, and the subject of overpopulation is given the trademark thoughtful exploration that Chadwick fans have come to expect. Collects the six-issue miniseries. 160 pages. Soft Cover Black & White 6" x 9" (15cm x 23cm) ISBN: 159307462X Recommended.
