THE CASTAWAYS
Rob Vollmar & Pablo Callejo
The Complete CASTAWAYS collection -- the first graphic novel by the
best-selling team of BLUESMAN!
THE CASTAWAYS is an emotionally powerful tale, drawn from the fabric
of America itself, that follows the adventures of young Tucker Freeman
as he is compelled to hop a train to escape from the crippling poverty
of his rural existence. Armed with only fifteen cents and the memory of
his occasional hobo father's counsel, Tucker must find his place in
this broken America of the Great Depression before the realities of
being young, poor, and homeless consume him.
This new NBM/ComicsLit edition of THE CASTAWAYS features a six-page
conclusion/epilogue not featured in the original release as well as a
new two-color look, and will stand as THE definitive edition of a book
nominated for an Eisner in the Best Single Issue/One Shot category in
2002. An epic adventure recalling the works of Mark Twain, Jack London,
and John Steinbeck.

And don't miss Vollmar & Callejo’s BLUESMAN series (3 vols.). Here's
what the press had to say:
"There's enough suspense and atmosphere here to make anyone grip their
chair and feel transported,” says the Los Angeles Times.
"Writer Rob Vollmar imagines a place rich in meaning and menace; Pablo
G. Callejo's expressive B&W images give it vibrancy,” Entertainment
Weekly agreed.

the heat and surrender of sweet sex, as we get to know Alex better.

The list of suspects includes Dex Thom, a skilled skateboarder whose
parents wanted him to be a musical prodigy; the Pink Shadow, a girl of
mystery; her equally secretive trainer, Mr. Miyagi; and the Wraith, a
dark and brooding young man. Will Frank and Joe solve the mystery
