the skulls and this will all be kept top secret Why do the
Japanese soldiers want to keep the skulls? Why is this being kept
secret? Find out here on Island! Now let's visit Karla the Grey

ROB HANES ADVENTURES #5(on sale) & #6(now solicited)
32 pages, black & white, color covers, $2.95/$4.10CAN
WCG Comics
www.wcgcomics.com
wcgcomics@wcgcomics.com

Story & Art by Randy Reynaldo

Rob Hanes is a soldier of fortune working for Justice
International. He is the son of a former US agent who is now under
an alias after being accused of being a spy for the other side
during the Cold War. Rob is convinced his dad is innocent and
wants to prove it. Hanes comes across as a younger James Bond type
who entrances the girls but does not cross the line into starting
an actual relation, even for one night.

In issue #5 Rob gets back to the quest for the truth behind his
father's being discredited as the cold war double agent Glowworm.
Also on the search is Rob's lifelong friend, Alexandra Vera Cruz,
whose father was killed by Glowworm though at the start she does
not know that Rob's father has been accused of being the killer.
Once again Rob is mixed up with beautiful women and international
intrigue as the quest leads him to an arms dealer known as Felix
Shannon. There is a plot to get an old Russian sub and sell it on
the black market. The CIA is on to the plot and do not want Rob
messing up their chance to squash it as their paths cross. The
sixth issue deals with an attempt to sell nuclear secrets and yes
another beautiful woman. There are mysteries they have to solve,
escapes from the bad guys and chase scenes like any good spy
adventure.

Through it all the reader is entertained with a fast paced story that
keeps changing and adding characters and clues as to where it is
heading.  The action is integral to the plot as are all the
characters.  Nothing is over done or drawn out and yet you are
left wanting more at the conclusions.  The art is clean and it is
easy to see why it has gotten the praise it has.  This is the
perfect comic to enjoy on its own or to give to someone who thinks
all comics are about super heroes. Get the latest issue and order
#6 while you can.

STARGATE SG-1 2004 Convention Special Wraparound Purple Test
Print Foil
Retail Price: $49.99 US
Cover: Jorge Correa Jr.
Story: James Anthony
Art: Jorge Correa Jr.
Readership: all ages
Format: Full color, 16 pages, one shot

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: What makes this comic book so special is that
the foil is on the wraparound cover, not the standard cover, and
in special purple foil, which we have never used before. Test
prints are done by the printer to make sure that all the alignment
is OK on the foil press and that the foil is adhering properly on
the front cover of the comic book before they print the normal
print run. These are usually created on overprinted copies of the
same cover that will be foiled later on, and then discarded by the
printer. There are no other foil editions of the wraparound cover.
The net result is this is one of the most limited Stargate comic
books ever! When the SGC learns the location of vital tactical
information about Apophis's military plans, SG1 must execute a
daring snatch-and-grab operation to retrieve it from the Goa'uld
mothership. O'Neill, Carter, Teal'c, and Daniel must infiltrate
the serpent's lair and obtain the data crystals before the dread
system lord can turn his full power against the Earth and her
allies. Using information obtained from a mysterious informant,
the team plunges into the mission but will they find that their
knowledge of the enemy is helping them.or being used against them?
This edition is limited to just 150 copies. Each copy ships with a
certificate of authenticity and in a bag and board.

Cover: Juan Jose Ryp
Story: Steven Grant
Art: Anderson Ricardo
Readership: MR
Format: Full color, 16 pages, one shot

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Juan Jose Ryp works more of his magic on
this exclusive new cover. This special one shot introduces the
new creative team of Steven Grant, no stranger to Robocop as he
adapted Frank Miller's series, and artist Anderson Ricardo. A
bored rich kid gets his kicks hacking into what's left of the
Detroit grid, triggering random power failures and screwing up
transit, causing various tensions that Murphy and Lewis have to
cope with to maintain public order. Thwarted by Robocop, the
hacker tries to hack into Robocop's systems, but finds something
else instead in the depths of OCP's computer system, still on-
line in the wake of the company's collapse. It's the next step up
from Robocop: a prototype robo-soldier, literally a killing
machine, that never received a human brain. But the hacker
provides the brain by remote, sending the Killing Machine out
into Detroit to find and destroy Robocop. To his surprise, the
robotic systems dominate and the Killing Machine has its own
program: total annihilation! Limited to 1500 copies.
