Media Release -- From highly trained, covert operatives, to anthropomorphic noire, to murder foul, Indie Comics Magazine #9 explores feats of excitement and peril in a special Adventure Issue, for order from February 2015's Previews catalog under Aazurn Publishing!
"There's a lot of straight forward, butt kicking action in this issue," chuckled Publisher Gary Scott Beatty, "but all eight tales are still done-in-one, complete stories. We have heroes on both sides of the law, an agent of the Vatican who is a law unto himself, space adventure, super heroes, and even (shudder!) lawyers in Indie Comics Magazine #9!"
The Adventure Issue features stories from Omar Morales, Ramon Gil, Terry Cronin, Devastating Roulette Studios, Guys 'N' Ties, Paul Bradford, Marta Tanrikulu, Troy Vevasis, and a monstrous cover by Beatty himself. "We are half returning talent and half brilliant newcomers, and every one of them kicked it up a notch!"
"Cruzader, Agent of the Vatican" runs deadly missions for the pope! Omar Morales is the energetic writer, creator, and publisher of the action-packed "CruZader" graphic novel. With the tagline "Prophecies, Aliens, Sinners and Saints," CruZader features pencils and inks by Joel Cotejar.

"You know, other companies are always saying how an issue is a jumping on point for new readers. All of our issues are great for new readers — nothing continues!" said Beatty.
