Two Titanic Tales of
Adventure in One Package, from Van Allen Plexico
Who is… the
Griffon??
When criminals, saboteurs
and foreign agents threaten America ’s security, millionaire ballistics expert Kerry
Keen takes the controls of his custom-built, heavily-armed seaplane, the Black
Bullet, as the dashing Griffon!
With mechanic/co-pilot/butler/chauffeur
Barney O’Dare at his side, the Griffon strikes from a hidden hangar on Long
Island Sound and delivers swift and often brutal justice to those deserving of
it. Sought by the authorities for his
ruthless vigilante tactics, he must constantly avoid both the wrath of his foes
and the long arm of the law.
In these two new
adventures by award-winning and best-selling New Pulp author Van Allen
Plexico (Sentinels; Lucian), the Griffon squares off against
Nazi agent The Terror and his horrifying new secret weapon that could tilt the
balance Germany's way in the coming war—and then battles The Viper, a
vengeance-seeking SS officer leading a squadron of missile-launching
rocket-planes!
“The Griffon is such a
terrific character,” says Plexico, “and I’m happy that White Rocket can offer
readers what is essentially a two-part adventure together in one package for
the first time. Fuel up the seaplane and
get ready for takeoff—the Griffon flies again!”
