Frank Forte, publisher of Asylum Press, has announced the release of a 4 page preview of the tongue in cheek pulp book Fearless Dawn #2. The synopsis of issue #2 can be described as this: "Hopped up out of their freakin' minds on the Combat "Power" drug, Fearless Dawn,(heroine extraordinaire), and Number Seven (her manly love interest) go on a rampage through Helga's camp. The combat monster versions of Fearless Dawn and Old Number Seven SMASH a lot of stuff and MAIM aplenty as they make their exciting escape! Meanwhile, the SYNDICATE sends in a secret weapon to aid in the rescue. Get set dear readers for an Eisnerian ROMP of unprecedented proportions! BLGGLGH!!! Join us now as Steve Mannion's beautifully rendered comic book tale unfolds in full-color glory! Fan's of Steve Mannion's The Bomb will love this new action-packed series.
"Back in February's PREVIEWS there was a book from Asylum Press called Fearless Dawn that went largely unnoticed by fans and retailers. The entire industry went on rolling without giving it a second glance, and like many small press books it nearly slipped into obscurity without reaching the core readers in our hobby. But when a copy of it made its way across my desk, I knew from first glance it was something special that people needed to see" commented Jim Kuhoric of Diamond Comics Distributors.
"I am excited to bring Fearless dawn to a full-color series," says creator Steve Mannion," this is a dream project and I'm having a blast." "We'll be updating the website and blog on a regular basis so fans can see pencil to ink pages, colors, thumbnails and interact with Steve," says publisher Frank Forte.
"Steve Mannion is one of the most underrated artists in comics. Part Dave Stevens, part Wally Wood his art encapsulates everything I love about comic books," says Rick Remender (Punisher, Fear Agent)
The Publication schedule is as follows. Fearless Dawn:Special Edition #1 (ships Nov. 2009), Fearless Dawn #2 (Ships Dec. 2009), Fearless Dawn #3 (Ships Feb. 2010), and Fearless Dawn #4 (Ships Mar. 2010),
