POST SCRIPTUM: The Un-Scripted Adventures of Paul Stone  
Post Scriptum is an experimental comic from six artists (Dan McDaid, Daniel LaFrance, Emil Zuga, Fede Milella, Francesco Francavilla, Robert Hack) also known as the 6-Pack. The story started as a jam and quickly turned into a fun action adventure. The story features the strange experiences of secret agent Paul Stone, codename Post Scriptum (P.S.).
The first story, "Rocket Love," is an unscripted romp with no pre-planned plot--it's just 6 artists trying to outdo each other on a very cool adventure, each picking up where the other left off. To make things even more interesting, we've decided to do the first story with no dialogue.
For updates on the developements of this series please visit the comicspace page
or the temporary official website where you can find also pinups and files on the 6-Pack. Hope you guys keep following us and enjoy the stories.

Synopsis: Eric Westfall continues his search for Emma, with the secrets of one of America's biggest intelligence agencies hanging in the balance. Tracked by Painter, an agent tasked to ensure that Westfall kills or turns Emma, Westfall finds his mark - but not in any way that he could have predicted...

Fear Agent #11 on the shelves on Wed Feb 28th!
The last book of the Image run of Fear Agent is finally here! It is also a special issue since it's not part of the current continuity but takes place 8 years before the events of Fear Agent 1-10. That means it can be easily enjoyed even if you missed the previous books (though I would suggest to hunt them down because the series is really good).
I was really fun to draw the good ol' Heath and I am looking forward to future Fear Agent stories. (see the preview in the sequentials page of this site)

Synopsis:
An issue long "Tales of the Fear Agent" illustrated by legendary Italian illustrator FRANCESCO FRANCAVILLA! A population of human flies pays Heath to protect them from a race of spiders slowly taking over their world. However, when Heath becomes impregnated with the spiders' eggs he becomes the planet's greatest threat.
Story by Rick Remender , Art by Francesco Francavilla - 32 pages, color.
