Military vs Monsters! Larry Hama writes Spooks#1

I loved the G.I. Joe comics in the 80s, along with the cartoons.  How could you not.  Even my wife liked them at the time.  Larry Hama's work was simply amazing.  In February we'll see his latest project, Spooks published through Devil's Due Publishing.  Looking at these images, I'm looking forward to this.  I mean, a wolf-man, headless horseman, guys with lots of guns, what more can you ask for?  There's even a female with a slightly revealing top, if you crave that stuff in your comics.  This reminds me a little of the (bad) season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer when she came across those military dudes taking down the creatures (ugh, I just remembered the lame Adam creature).  But with Larry Hama and R.A. Salvatore, I don't think there's any way this can go wrong.

I've said it before, if you want to see more than just superhero comics, you have to support new stuff like this.  Make sure to ask your local comic shop to order this for you or you're going to miss out on the fun.

This February, the titanic creative minds of Larry Hama (G.I. Joe), Ryan Schifrin (director of Abominable) and R.A. Salvatore (Forgotton Realms, Demonwars) team up with artist Adam Archer (Friday the 13th) for the fight of the century in SPOOKS! It’s military vs. monsters in a battle for the fate of humanity, and Devil’s Due is proud to this exclusive sneak peek at interior art from the first two issues!

An action-adventure epic, SPOOKS tells the story of a covert branch of the United States military, a crack team of men and women whose job is to guard the country from all threats supernatural. They are the only thing that stands between the “things that go bump in the night”—Vampires, werewolves, witches, warlocks, and headless horsemen—and the annihilation of the human race! But when the king of all vampires forms an alliance with the deadliest of all witches, an invasion of monsters unlike the world has ever seen is unleashed on America! Be the first to witness the clash of military characters from the mind of Larry Hama and monsters from the mind of R.A. Salvatore!

Created by Ryan Schifrin (director of Abominable) and Daniel Alter (producer of Hitman, Johnny Quest, and Lost Squad), with military concepts created by Larry Hama and classic monsters created by R.A. Salvatore, SPOOKS is written by Hama and Schifrin with art by Adam Archer (Friday the 13th). Issue #1 of the 4-issue miniseries features a regular cover by Greg Staples and a collector's edition cover by Adam Archer, and is available for order in the December issue of PREVIEWS.
