One of Oni Press' earliest and most acclaimed books returns in a brand new re-mastered and re-formatted edition! U.S. Marshal Carrie Stetko has made Antarctica her home. In the vastness of The Ice, she found peace... Or at least that's what she thought, until someone commits a murder in her jurisdiction and the lawwoman is forced to use her detective skills once more or become another victim to this mysterious killer.

From the Publisher:

"Carrie Stetko. . . is a believable character with compelling flaws, understandable motivations, and is given a clear voice by Rucka. . .the look and feel of this book is dead on. . .a must read." --The Comics Journal

"Carrie's Dirty Harry and we... are on the edge of our seats. . .And if the last three pages don't break your heart even as they make you smile, then your soul is made of ice. Bravo, Mr.'s Lieber and Rucka. Now please go make more." --Artbomb

"A stark, gripping little graphic novel, with wonderful art by Steve Lieber (one of my favorite artists ever since his run on Hawkman, back when the Winged Avenger was written by John Ostrander). The Antarctic setting is used as nicely here as in John Carpenter's The Thing, creating a sense of bleakness and hopelessness that pervades the rest of the tale. The sequel, Whiteout: Melt, is even more intense, although not really a whodunit; it's basically a spy story with Carrie stuck in the middle of things (Lilly is long gone). It's all but impossible to put down." --Chud (Cinematic Happenings Under Development)

". . .works wonderfully well. Rucka creates some real three-dimensional characters. . . The murder plot unfolds at a nice pace, details all come together in the end, and there's still room for character development." --Comic Book Resources

"Wonderful characterisation and dense plotting with plenty of twists in the tale are complemented by an impressive range of artwork by Steve Lieber." --Sequential Tart

"Greg Rucka's knows crime so well, I'd be afraid to spend time alone with him. He has to have a record as long as my arm to tell stories with such realism at such ease. . . Steve Lieber may not be familiar to a lot of readers, but his work on this title is nothing short of absolute greatness. When you deal with a location which is nothing but snow and ice, save for the base and the people inhabiting it, there's a lot of pressure to make it visually appealing and Lieber does than and then some. He is able to show the claustrophobic atmosphere and desolate landscape in equal measure. Aside from having a great story and a not often seen setting, the duo add unique element by making the two main protagonists female. Marshall Carrie Stetko and special agent Lily Sharpe (who is currently seen in Rucka's ongoing Queen and Country series through Oni Press) are more than great female leads. They're two of the most completely realized and believable characters that you'll find in any! comic book story. This is as unique a comic story as you can find and one that certainly belongs in any fans `required reading' list. Whiteout, and the equally intelligent and entertaining sequel, Whiteout Melt, are both available in Trade Paperback format." -Ain't it Cool News

About the Author:
Greg Rucka was born in San Francisco and raised on the Central Coast of California, in what is commonly referred to as “Steinbeck Country.” He began his writing career in earnest at the age of 10 by winning a county-wide short-story contest, and hasn’t let up since. He graduated from Vassar College with an A.B. in English, and from the University of Southern California’s Master of Professional Writing program with an M.F.A. He is the author of nearly a dozen novels, six featuring bodyguard Atticus Kodiak, and three featuring Tara Chace, the protagonist of his Queen & Country series. Additionally, he has penned several short-stories, countless comics, and the occasional non-fiction essay. In comics, he has had the opportunity to write stories featuring some of the world’s best-known characters—Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman—as well as penning several creator-owned properties himself, such as Whiteout and Queen & Country, both published by Oni Press. His work has been optioned several times over, and his services are in high-demand in a variety of creative fields as a story-doctor and creative consultant. Greg resides in Portland, Oregon, with his wife, author Jennifer Van Meter, and his two children. He thinks the biggest problem with the world is that people aren’t paying enough attention.
