Hi Fans,
Our good friends at Power Comics Inc. have just launched a second campaign for there premier comic--The Masters. And it just so happens that yours truly build out this campaign for them. Not only that I lettered issue #2. It would mean the world to me if you checked it out. Pledges are awesome, but if you can't at this time, please share the campaign. I appreciate it!
Austin has assembled a multitude of talent from all ages of comics including Tom Morgan, Joe Rubinstein, Ron Wilson, Alex Saviuk and so many more!
Issue 2 continues the saga of The Masters with the introduction of our main protagonist and leader of our super-hero team: The Black Owl!
The format and style of The Masters Issues 2 and 3 continue it's homage to the Bronze Age comic book series The Brave and The Bold drawn so beautifully for nearly 100 issues by legendary DC Comics artist Jim Aparo.
And, as in The Brave and The Bold, each villain is confronted by the main hero (in this case a re-imagined, modernized version of the Golden Age public domain character, the Black Owl) along with a fellow guest hero from the Golden Age of Comics (who has also been re-imagined and modernized).
Best,
Darrin (on behalf of Michael Finn)

New Liberty Brigade stories PLUS some Golden Age stories lost for 80 years and never published…until NOW!
We hope you all have received your Liberty Brigade books and love them as much as we loved making them. We learned a very crucial lesson last time around and we will never again run a campaign until the books are complete and ready to be printed and shipped!!! Take that to the bank!
Up next. from Thrilling Nostalgia Comics, is The Blue Flame #1, The Blue Flame #2and K the Unknown #1.
The Blue Flame® #1 includes a reprint of his first appearance in Captain Flight #11 (Four Star 1947) and then two new short stories showing what happened immediately after the Captain Flight appearance..
In TheBlue Flame® #2,we see the return of two Golden Age villains, THE BAT and THE VULTURE as they seek to create havoc at the Empire State Building. Thankfully, the BLUE FLAME is on hand along with two friends, Rocket Man and Rocket Girl! This 7-page story is written by Michael Finn with art by DC comics superstar Geraldo Borges!
And, we have a brand new "lost" Golden Age story - featuring boy detective RYANSTEELE. This 8-page story was written, penciled, inked and lettered in 1945 but lost for nearly 80 years until we found it We colored it and are publishing it for the very first time!
The K the Unknown, one-shot reprints the original K the Unknown’s only appearance from Prize Comics #1 (Prize 1940) and also the first appearance of Obersturmbannführer Death from Speed Comics #16 (Harvey 1942). It then shows you what happened when K encountered Death, a story hinted at in the Liberty Brigade graphic novel. We are also very proud to announce that the comic contains the long-lost, first appearance of Xandu the Magician in a story that was penciled, inked and lettered nearly 80 years ago, and, at last, is being published. (**You should have received a digital copy of K as a “thank you” for our original campaign but this is your opportunity to get a physical copy).
