AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTIONS
Presents
THE PURPLE SCAR
In
THE BLACK FOG
Airship 27 Productions is proud to present the very first
full length Purple Scar novel written by New Pulp author, Gene Moyers.
A hooded man suddenly appears on the streets of Akelton carrying
a strange device strapped to his back. Affixed to it is a nozzle from which
enveloping black fog spews forth quickly swallowing everything in its path; to
include men, women in children. And just like that the city is thrown into
panic as the mysterious villain begins popping up all over the city wielding
his eerie weapon.
Realizing he is facing a supernatural threat, Captain Dan
Griffin enlists the aid of the city’s own gruesome crime fighter, the Purple
Scar. Secretly plastic surgeon Doctor Miles Murdoch, the Scar, with the aid of
his nurse Dale Jordan and ally Tommy Pedlar, is quickly on the hunt for the
mastermind behind the fog of terror. For in the first time in his vigilante
career, the Purple Scar is battling an evil scientific genius whose purposes
can only herald doom and bloodshed. It is a battle he cannot afford to lose.
Having contributed short stories to the two previous volumes
in this series, Moyers took the next step in writing a novel featuring the
Haunted Horror. “We see it often enough,”
says Airship 27 Managing Editor, Ron Fortier. “Every now and then a New Pulp
writer will develop a special affinity for a golden age character. Moyers
seemed to have fixated on the uniqueness of the Scar’s persona. More than just
a run-of-the-mill avenger type, the Purple Scar stories infused a generous
portion of horror along with their suspense. It was this added element that
fascinated Moyers and eventually inspired him to write The Black Fog. And we
couldn’t be any happier.”
Joining Moyers on the project were two amazing artists.
Former Pulp Factory Award winner Chris Kohler provided the 9 black and white
interior illustrations while British painter Graham Hill the eerie colorful
cover depicting the gruesome Scar. Art
Director Rob Davis brought it all together to produce one of Airship 27
Productions’ most spectacular titles. If you think you know the Purple Scar,
think again.
