BARRY REESE JOINS CAPTAIN ACTION TEAM!
Airship 27 Productions and Captain Action Enterprises LLC are
thrilled to welcome popular New Pulp writer Barry Reese to the Captain Action
team. Reese, known for his fast paced,
action pulp series such as the Peregrine, Lazarus Gray and Gravedigger, will be
making his debut in the third Captain Action novel from Airship 27 Productions.
Since their partnership with Captain Action Enterprises
began several years ago, Airship 27 Productions has released two Captain Action
full length novels; “Riddle of the Glowing Men” and “Hearts of the Rising Sun,”
both by writer Jim Beard. Last year a Lady Action novelette, “The Sands of
Forever” was authored by Airship 27 Productions’ Managing Editor, Ron Fortier.
“This is a really great franchise,” said Fortier
recently. “Not only do these books
appeal our pulp readers, but also to the legions of Captain Action toy
collectors. It just seemed a natural fit
right from the start. Jim Beard’s first
two novels were a big hit and it’s been clear all along that our fans want
more.”
Whereas Beard’s own fast rising success began to infringe on
his available time, he was still hoping to get a third Captain Action novel
done. Eventually realizing that would be
impossible, Beard reached out to his friend and colleague Barry Reese to see if
he was available to help with the project.
After receiving approval from all parties involved, the two writers
worked out their plans.
“I'm providing a full plot and chapter breakdown,” Beard
explained, “as well as providing oversight for every step of the writing to
insure characterization and continuity to the previous two novels.”
As for Reese, his own excitement was evident from the start. "As a lifelong fan of the Captain Action character, I'm thrilled to be able to work with Jim in adding new layers to the legend! We've both bursting with enthusiasm about the project and I can't think of a better writer to be teaming up with!"
So there you have it, pulp fans; the first ever team up of Jim Beard and Barry Reese to bring you the third action packed Captain Action adventure in this continuing series from Airship 27 Productions and Captain Action Enterprises, LLC. Look for the yet untitled book coming your way in early 2017.
