Boondock Fans Rejoice! "IN NOMINE PATRIS" Limited Edition Is Coming!

Since the release of the 1999 cult classic The Boondock Saints, director Troy Duffy’s stark tale of vigilance, guns and brotherly mayhem have been all the rage in many circles over the last decade and it’s audience continues to grow till this day. But what’s not mentioned here is the dreadful wait many of the fans and Boondock Betties alike had to go through before a sequel was finally produced. Fortunately for fans everywhere however, there won’t be much of a wait to dive back into the world of MacManus brothers, so to speak. No one knows when exactly we’ll get another sequel from Duffy and the gang (if any of the production crew is reading this, then PLEASE hurry up already!) but until that day does come, fans can always rejoice knowing that they’re beloved cult classic continues in a different media format… Comic books!

Last year fans of the popular Boondock Saints’ series flocked to near by comic shops and book stores to collect the 12-Gauge Comics comic mini series “IN NOMINE PATRIS.” which was well received by both veteran fans and newcomers to the series as well as critics for it’s loyal dedication to the core material the comic is based on. And while it may not be the next live action installment in the franchise fans are eagerly awaiting more. It did serve as a satisfactory alternative to the films which would keep the fans busy until the next installment. However, if you haven’t picked up your copy of this vigilant tale of mayhem and rough justice or is just hearing about it now, then you might want to hold off just a bit longer before picking up a copy as 12-Gauge Comics is re-releasing the graphic novel “IN NOMINE PATRIS.” in two special limited collector’s editions just in time for the holidays!
