The Boondock Saints is a story currently loved by millions of people. It started as a single independent movie back in 1999 with no proper release to the public. It’s popularity grew by passionate fans sharing the movie with their friends. It’s audience consists of various types of people; from young teens to the college-aged crowd to military members and beyond. Veracious fans, who love to quote lines from the movie, screamed for more. And through the years they seem to get what they wish for; including clothing, a sequel, mobile games, ring tones and comics. Now the faithful flock can include another goody in their treasures with the release of The Boondock Saints ‘In Nomine Patris’ Graphic Novel.

In addition to the mass market softcover edition of “In Nomine Patris” The Secret History of IL Duce (available for pre-order at fine comic and book sellers everywhere),

Boondock Saints and their comics partners (INNFUSION & 12-Gauge Comics) are proud to announce two EXCLUSIVE ULTRA LIMITED COLLECTOR’S EDITIONS:

1) The Boondock Saints Graphic Novel – EXCLUSIVE HARDCOVER Collectors Edition!

and

2) The limited edition Boondock Saints Graphic Novel – EXCLUSIVE “BLACK LABEL EDITION!”

I’ll include more full details and images below, but first, here is a video of Boondock Saints Creator / Writer / Director, Troy Duffy discussing the new Boondock Saints Graphic Novel and he offers a peek into the creative process and how the book ties into the hit films.

The BOONDOCK SAINTS’ initial foray into comics is expanding into two new LIMITED COLLECTORS’ EDITIONS – A DELUXE HARDCOVER with exclusive deleted scenes and an ultra-rare signed and numbered “BLACK LABEL EDITION”.

The HARDCOVER is LIMITED to 850 COPIES and includes 16 pages of never before released, new material and a brand new cover by series Producer, Eben Matthews. This new content brings fans behind the scenes of the comic series and reveals the alternate version of the comic series’ second issue including the full story of IL DUCE’S BETRAYAL by “The Roman” and how we come to find him in Prison during the first film.

The “BLACK LABEL EDITION” is designed for the ‘Psycho Boondock Fan’ and is the ultimate edition of the Graphic Novel. This package includes the Hardcover as well as an exclusive set of mini-posters showcasing all six comic covers by series cover artist extraordinaire, Chris Brunner. It is packaged in a gorgeous black on black museum quality clamshell case and debossed with the Saints celtic cross and iconic “Veritas / Aequitas”. This edition is LIMITED to ONLY 150 COPIES and SIGNED AND NUMBERED by Franchise Creator / Writer / Director, TROY DUFFY.

“IN NOMINE PATRIS” is Troy Duffy’s first foray into comics and the first outing of the Boondock Saints in a whole new medium. While staying true to the characters and tone which has made The BOONDOCK SAINTS films among the most successful independent movies of all time, this brand new story written by Duffy and comic scribe, J.B. LOVE is the perfect companion to the films.

The hit comics series masterfully interweaves the events of the BOONDOCK SAINTS II: ALL SAINTS DAY with brand new material to reveal the secret history of the original saint, NOAH MACMANUS (IL DUCE) as he wages a bloody war against 1960′s New York’s Underground Crime world. The storyline is intercut with brand new adventures of the BROTHERS MACMANUS (The Boondock Saints) doing what they do best; dolling out their special brand of justice to those that deserve it. “In Nomine Patris” brings a new chapter of the Saints saga to life while revealing the families LEGACY OF VENGENCE that created this trio of “Shepherds”.

Featuring a forward by Connor MacManus himself – actor, SEAN PATRICK FLANERY – Join Troy Duffy and his comics team in this thrilling new Saints Adventure by pre-ordering these deluxe collectors editions. In addition to the Hardcover’s exclusive content, the graphic novel collects all six comic issues, never before seen art, a cover gallery, behind the scenes sketches and more.
