Hi, Folks:

My friend A.P. Fuchs, the prolific publisher of Coscom Entertainment, has produced a quite a few Axiom-man books, but so far they have been mostly prose novels.  (Check them out.  They are available on Amazon.com, and in the Kindle Store)  Now A.P.  is taking the dive into a monthly Axiom-man comic, and the results should be great.

On the surface, Axiom-man is a coming-of-age story;  it is also a nuts-n-bolts, ground view of becoming a superhero.  Gabriel Garrison is granted amazing powers by a mysterious stranger across an internet connection.  In biblical times this message and gift would have been delivered by an angel, and perhaps it’s that way here as well.  Gabriel’s own name also alludes to this angelic connection, as the original Gabriel is one of God’s four arch-angels. I could go on making connections, but really I should leave that to you, the readers.

Gabriel’s private life is a mess, and it reminds us simultaneously of Clark Kent and Peter Parker.  Gabriel is a wage slave, a bit of a non-entity, and he’s enamored with a co-worker who wants nothing to do with him.

I could go on and on, but here’s the thing as I see it: Axiom-man is a parable about man’s ascendant nature or soul.  (Of course, when I put it that way, it doesn’t sound entertaining–but it is!)  If you prefer to just read it as a story about a man who becomes the world’s first superhero and has all sorts of problems with learning his powers and coming to grips with his enemies, then that’s fine too, because it’s all here.

Axiom-man is available for pre-orders now.
