Some of you may remember when I posted about this last year... Well, it is now getting ready for actual release sometime before July, and I'm taking direct preorders for the DIGITAL edition.
For those who are new to this, a 15-page preview can be seen here: http://www.heavy-weapon.com/
The preview has also been updated with freshly cleaned up inks for all 15 pages if anyone who saw the early version wants a refresher. These are still non-final pages since the grayscale shading still needs to be added, and professional lettering is being added as well.

ABOUT THE BOOK
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heavy Weapon is the ultimate homage to 80's action movies in graphic novel form! You can excpect machine guns, muscles, action, one-liners and of course explosions!
PLOT SUMMARY:
Vietnam veteran, and former member of an elite Special Forces group, John Magnum, left the military due to the tragic loss of his entire battalion while under his command. Since then, he has been consumed with guilt over the deaths of his men. He just wants to live a normal life and forget his violent past...
...But now, his former Commanding Officer, Colonel Deckard, has tracked him down to inform him that a small group of POWs, captured during the war 10 years ago, have been found, and are being used as slave labor for a drug cartel in Costa Rica. Deckard asks Magnum to accompany him as an escort on a Top Secret mission to rescue the POWs, but Magnum refuses...
It's not his battle anymore.
Only a few days later, Magnum is approached by his old friend Richter, the only survivor of Magnum's lost battalion. Richter presents Magnum with a surprising video tape revealing that Deckard and his crew have been captured, and are being tortured then killed one-by-one at the hands of a ruthless drug lord. Before the tape ends, Colonel Deckard makes a plea for help from Magnum.
Magnum knows he can't let any more of his friends get killed and decides to go to Costa Rica to exact his revenge on everyone in his path on his mission to rescue Deckard, his team, and the POWs from the clutches of the heartless drug lord...

...but I wouldn't hold out on the ME. A $2.25 deposit guarantees you a copy, and you get the digital one early.
