September 24, 2008 RUNNEMEDE, NJ - Dynamite Entertainment today released images and information featuring the December release of The Death Defying ‘Devil #1, the new exciting spin-off series from one of 2008's most powerful series, Project Superpowers!

Dynamite Entertainment and Alex Ross present an exciting new series featuring one of the greatest heroes of the ages as The Death Defying ‘Devil launches into his own thrilling series! Joining Project Superpowers mastermind Alex Ross for the debut of The Death Defying ‘Devil is writer Joe Casey and Dynamite exclusive artist Edgar Salazar!  And if that were not enough, Dynamite is also bringing on board as the "dynamite" alternate cover artist John Cassaday!

Spinning out of the events from Project Superpowers Chapter One and bridging the gap before the debut of Project Superpowers Chapter Two, the mysterious ‘Devil is put on the case to track down the terrorist organization known as "The Claw". Traveling with the equally mysterious Justine, the ‘Devil is shadowed by a new hero that very well may hold the answers to the ‘Devil's strange existence and new clues to the nature of the Urn which imprisoned all of the heroes!
 
"We're extremely happy to be expanding the Project Superpowers Universe that Dynamite has built together with Alex Ross and Jim Krueger," stated Dynamite's Nick Barrucci. "Bringing Joe Casey as the scripter was a piece of the puzzle that Joe put together by reaching out to Alex to join our team.  It's great to know that great talent such as Joe could see what we were building towards in the initial series, and has helped us to showcase the ‘Devil as the next step towards introducing these ‘dynamite' characters to the world!  We cannot wait to show the fans more information and story art pages with our upcoming press and creator interviews!"
