Merchants of Death

    (Eclipse, 1988)
™ and © 1988 Kurt Busiek, Dan Brereton and respective creators

Billed as “The Best in Adventure from Europe and the Americas,” this four issue series features entertaining stories by a variety of writers and artists in a magazine-size format. There is the tragic tale of a young soldier who craves to become a hero by delivering what he believes to be an important message for the general. The story “Soldier of Fortune,” tells of a man sent to rescue a president and features beautiful full color art by Argentine artist Enrique Breccia (Perramus, Mort Cinder). And Kurt Busiek (Marvels, Avengers) follows the high-octane adventures of Jack Ransom who is hired to recover a mysterious brooch only to become embroiled in an international conspiracy. Fast paced story telling and tons of action fuel these stories which are set in different time periods and feature both color and black and white art.
