Marvel Comics has announced an ongoing Winter Soldier series by Ed Brubaker and Butch Guice to launch in February with covers by Lee Bermejo.

“I knew 90 percent of the angry ‘You killed Bucky’ fans were fans who were upset that I brought him back in the first place who I had won over,” Brubaker said. “Hopefully I will be able to win them back again.”

The series will touch on Bucky’s history from the Cold War and will feature Black Widow, and, to a lesser degree, Nick Fury.

Sequential Pulp Comics has released a preview of the cover to THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES graphic novel by Jamie Chase. Michael Hudson, Art Director. Written by Martin Powell. To be published in 2012 by Sequential Pulp/Dark Horse Comics. Artwork © Jamie Chase.

The digital edition of Bobby Nash’s novel, Deadly Games! is available at Smashwords for the low price of $3.00. You can purchase the Smashwords Edition of Deadly Games! at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/101814

About Deadly Games!
They played the most dangerous game of all and death was only the beginning…

Six years ago, Police Detective John Bartlett and journalist Benjamin West were instrumental in the capture of notorious master criminal Darrin Morehouse. Their story played out in the media, rocketing both Bartlett and West into local celebrity status.

Today, Morehouse, still a master game player and manipulator, commits suicide while in prison. His death initiates one final game of survival for the people Morehouse felt wronged him the most. At that top of the list are Bartlett and West, who must set aside their differences to save the lives of Morehouse’s other victims and solve one last game before a dead man’s hired killers catch them and his other enemies.

Deadly Games! is a fast-paced action/thriller featuring action, suspense, murder, and the occasional gunfire from Author Bobby Nash, the writer of Evil Ways, Domino Lady, Lance Star: Sky Ranger, and more.

Since I’ve been a judge for this award (a few years back now; the scars have completely healed), I’ve got a higher regard for the winners, and now I really need to track down a copy of Who Fears Death.

Congratulations to all of the winners. And, to the judges: you can relax now, and read something you want to, for a change.

The Complete Casebook of Cardigan, Volume 2: 1933
Authored by Frederick Nebel

The greatest series from the pages of Dime Detective Magazine is finally collected in four large editions. Running from 1931-37, Frederick Nebel’s P.I. Jack Cardigan was one of the main reasons for that magazine’s success as well as highly influential to the most popular hard-boiled writers of the day. Sadly, only a handful of the 44-installment series have ever been reprinted since their original appearances 80 years ago. This series collects the entire run.

Volume 2 continues the series and features the next 11 stories, complete, uncut, and with the original John Fleming Gould illustrations: “The Murder Cure” (January, 1933), “Me–Cardigan” (February, 1933), “Doorway to Danger” (March 1, 1933), “Heir to Murder” (April 1, 1933), “Dead Man’s Folly” (May 1, 1933), “Murder Won’t Wait” (May 15, 1933), “Chains of Darkness” (June 15-July 1, 1933), “Scrambled Murder” (July 15, 1933), “Death After Murder” (August 15, 1933), “Murder & Co.” (September 15, 1933) and “Murder a
la Carte” (November 15, 1933).
