For those who read this past Saturday’s newsletter, you know I had an Axiom-man novelette that I needed to do something with. Well, the decision has been made and this week I’ve been expanding it into a longer adventure team-up story.
THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA in terms of the main series features Axiom-man in solo adventures whereas the team-up stories are side tales.
AXIOM-MAN/CRIMSON CLOAK: SCARLET SYNERGY is one of them.
What you see above is the cover, that is, what the cover looks like before it’s made into an official book cover. All covers to THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA are designed by me then the crude sketch is handed over to Axiom-man cover artist Justin Shauf for pencils and inks.
My hope with this cover is to do something different in terms of superhero covers and it’s all in the coloring. I’ve never seen it done before but I think it’s a unique concept that can be pulled off. Stay tuned.
Due to book production time, this won’t be released before 2023’s clock runs out but look for it early in the New Year.
In the meantime, check out THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA to get caught up. Thanks and enjoy some good superheroic reading time.
As much as I like to support the little guy, sometimes you have to go to the big chains for your collectibles, and during this trip, we did find a couple things I haven’t seen anywhere else.
Let’s go!

The forces of Good and Evil are gathering, each side preparing themselves for what could be their last confrontation because the commander of the armies of darkness has arrived on Earth—the devil himself.
Overwhelmed after witnessing the manifestation of Heaven’s fallen angel, Lucifer, Billie is assigned two final tasks before the big battle. These assignments take her across the world where she meets two German brothers who prove to be tremendous allies as she goes to recruit brave men and women for humanity’s last stand, and the strange supernatural tool required to finally set all things right.
Back in the city, Joe and Tracy have to lean on each other and learn that a world full of zombies with Hell’s army at the door isn’t a time to keep secrets and risk the lives of others to keep them safe. The two go head-to-head as they struggle to survive what they discover are the last days of the zombie invasion and the powerful supernatural forces behind it.
This final installment in the UNDEAD WORLD TRILOGY is a wild adventure through a post-apocalyptic world that takes the reader to the very gates of Hell for one last strike against an enemy that has destroyed a planet.

It’s been a good while since I’ve done one of these blog posts showcasing some Hotwheels Batmobiles so here you go, three shorts and reels all in one place. Of course, a 9th volume is coming but one thing at a time.
Cheers. Enjoy.
Hope you enjoyed these Batman Batmobile Hotwheels videos!
Fuchs talks about this second phase of his journey here on YouTube and what it’s really all about by citing Harvey Pekar and his work with AMERICAN SPLENDOR. Bottom line: It’s about being down-to-Earth and revealing everyday life. It’s about relating to viewers. It’s about the audience and one man’s effort to connect on some level with whomever tunes in.
Watch.
