Pepe is a groundbreaking artist. He Introduced the modern graphic novel in the U.S. and broke new ground with Batman: Digital Justice. He pioneer video-games
with industry firsts like HellCab and BeachHead. IDW is now publishing a remake of REBEL.
In the best tradition of the post-apocalyptic movement and movie classics like The Road Warrior and Escape from New York, REBEL captures the raw essence of the period in its own right. Departing from the standard caped super hero mold, Pepe Moreno's style and aggressive, surgical approach to social commentary shook the world of graphic novels in its infancy. The message of his work still rings true. The combination of powerful story line and intuitive use of color continues to inspire generations of readers.
