For this week’s Science and Fiction I’m thrilled to announced I’m breaking ground with David Schmelling on the first book for Petro Patriot! At 32 pages the book kicks off Michael Albright’s quest to gain justice for his family in the year 2076, and the secret weapons program that will pit him against Pauline Censor, the Administrator, absolute authority over Pax City!
The first page opens a story in which Michael Albright learns that his unique history has gotten attention. Attention from the authorities, but also attention from the rebel organization Katalyst. Are the friends he makes along the way friends indeed, or is he being pulled into a web that may ultimately lead to being tied up in Pauline’s red tape? Or worse, in a Katalyst test chamber?
In the coming weeks we’ll be showing more artwork as it comes out, along with announcements about how we’ll be distributing once its ready. Stay tuned, sign up at the bottom if you haven’t, and in the meantime, please enjoy the black and white version of the first page!
