IF YOU WERE ATTACKED, WOULD YOU FIGHT BACK?

What if your family, your hometown, your entire way of living were threatened by force?  That’s what the people of Ukraine faced when Putin’s Russian army invaded their sovereign land, displacing millions of refugees and causing an international crisis threatening democracy across the globe.  But the Ukrainian people refused to cave — and these 9 stories weave the greater tale of their resistance — and fight for Victory!

This anthology is a collection created by Ukrainian artists during the first weeks of the Russian invasion, channeling all their emotions — their anger, courage, dreams, and despair into one goal, one manifestation of their nation’s fight for survival!

A portion of the proceeds for the paperback will be donated to Razom for Ukraine (“Razom” meaning “together” in Ukrainian), a non-profit Ukrainian-American human rights organization established to give direct support to the people of Ukraine in their pursuit of a democratic society with dignity, justice, and human and civil rights for all.

Part of the digital proceeds from this comic book will be donated via the UNITED24 platform. Launched by President Zelenskyy, the platform is the main venue for collecting charitable donations in support of Ukraine. Please join Mark Hamill and the Army of Drones to strengthen Ukraine and protect its people.

"For anyone looking for an engrossing learning experience in hopes of understanding what Ukraine is currently going through, along with a history lesson in the nation's past, this graphic novel is a must-buy." — Joe Anthony Myrick, Screen Rant

"Written and illustrated by Ukrainian creators, PEREMOHA doesn't just chronicle recent events during Russia's invasion. Instead, it turns some of these now more well known circumstances on their head. From a witch enacting her own vengeance on intruders to a slightly retold version of the Russian attack on Snake Island, PEREMOHA sucked me right in from the first page. This is a phenomenal way for folks to connect emotionally with what all is happening in Ukraine, what has happened in the past, and what will happen in the future." — Kvothe Harris, Rediscovered Books

"But there is no room to debate the merits of PEREMOHA: Victory for Ukraine, since it is ultimately the artistic embodiment of a nation’s desire to maintain its sovereignty and protect its people. [...] All of us who desire a democratic world free from senseless war and violence should read this graphic novel, and understand the Ukrainian fight for freedom." — Brett Michael Orr, Honey's Anime

Before the events of the 2021 animated series, Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness, Leon Kennedy is called in to investigate alongside Pittsburgh PD when a bomb kills a guard at the Carnegie Museum of Art. But when that guard rises from the autopsy table and begins a chain reaction of undead corpses hunting for blood, Leon is once again caught in a complex web of intrigue. A terrorist cult, a mysterious virus, and the corpses of the dead returning to life to assault the living...

"How a story is portrayed is as important as what it portrays. And here is where this graphic novel shines. The pacing is perfect, the artwork is as gritty as the story and that’s a good thing. The humanity of it all, the little nuances that are usually overlooked with human emotions in works of fiction are easy to pick up and that’s not only commendable, it’s worthy of praise. Overall Resident Evil Infinite Darkness: The Beginning is a welcomed addition to the franchise." — JP Kristov, Anime Corner

"If you’re a fan of the Resident Evil games but not up to date with all the other media installments of the series, but looking for stuff to jump in on that quells the void of a new Resident Evil game, this book might do the trick! [...] Candido kicks off the book with a good mystery that fits the DNA of Resident Evil, though it’s more so an action/suspense thriller than zombie horror, though that isn’t a bad thing given that the franchise fluctuates between those genre styles. [...] It’s no easy task to make a tie-in book to something that’s established, I think DeCandido and the rest of the art team deliver a serviceable installment that compliments the franchise." — Anthony Andujar Jr., Fandom Factor
