From best-selling writer Brian Wood! In a rush of great public resistance to an oppressive and excessive government, a homegrown militia movement is formed in rural America.

Read what they're saying about Rebels #1!

The Red Coats are coming… to Dark Horse Comics.” -CRAVE ONLINE

“Thrilling…. A comic with heart.” -COMIC BEAT

Rebels is a great & beautiful book! Read issue 1 & can't wait for the next one!” -Matt Mindt, MIND MGMT

“Brian Wood humanized Vikings in Northlanders long before History Channel ever thought to, and better than they ever knew how to. Now he’s turning his horcrux of historical humanism to Colonial America, and the New World comes to life in a way you’ve never see in it before. A comic.” -MAN CAVE DAILY

Like nothing you read in your school textbooks.” -NEWSARAMA

One of Wood's biggest strengths is creating rich, believable characters with clear voices and "Rebels" is no different…. Andrea Mutti delivers fast-paced action and panels full of emoting, active characters with spot-on design work… Though it's set against the backdrop of the American Revolution, Wood and Mutti's "Rebels" is about basic human rights and the freedom to grow into a person or a country on one's own time.” -COMIC BOOK RESOURCES

“Captivating.” -UNLEASH THE FANBOY

“Poignant and so incredibly powerful.” -POPMATTERS

“Very highly recommended.” -Si Spurrier

Absolutely entertaining, and thought-provoking. In today’s world where we're still debating liberty and tyranny, Rebels is yet another timely relevant comic, much like….Demo, Channel Zero, Mara, The New York Four, DMZ, and more.” -GRAPHIC POLICY 

“I’m looking forward to it.” -FANBOY COMICS 

A project born of passion for both history and country.” -THE NERDIST

An action packed and dynamic first issue that sucks you in and doesn’t let go. If this issue is any indicator then “Rebels” is going to be a very special and memorable series.” -GEEKED OUT NATION
