PETER PANZERFAUST TP VOL 01 THE GREAT ESCAPE

(W) Kurtis J. Wiebe  (A) Tyler Jenkins

The first volume of PETER PANZERFAUST, the critically acclaimed reimagining of the Peter Pan story set in the backdrop of World War II France. Peter leads a band of orphans in their desperate attempt to escape the city of Calais as the Nazi army presses its advance deeper into the country. With impossible odds against them, the Lost Boys survive a series of dangerous adventures on their road to Paris, and to freedom.

Re-imagining fairy tales in somewhat of an original way has always been a hard thing to pull off...Fables did it, Castle Waiting did it and now Peter Panzerfaust rolls in, guns blazing, ready to take the fantasy/action genre by storm! Pit against the horrors of war, Peter and company must learn the harsh lessons of survival while still holding on to what little childlike magic that still exists in their lives. From the writer of Debris and the Intrepids comes a high energy emotional roller coaster that will have you rethinking these classic characters for years to come. RECOMMENDED BY PERRY!
