What do Hollywood and international security have in common?

Nick Walker.

Not only is he a well-known (#12 on the list) handsome actor, but he is also an international spy behind the scenes. On-set, his trailer boasts such unusual options as a fold-down plasma-screen satellite monitor, a satellite communications system, and a personal assistant (Travis) with fingers of steel insured by Lloyds of London and a sharp wit.

The first issue (of five) finds Nick filming his latest hit, sharing screen time with Kim Carlisle and Alison Grant off the coast of France, where he goes on a routine recon mission to a lighthouse.

B. Clay Moore has written a witty, compelling, flowing story that oozes charm and makes the reader want to keep turning pages. Jeremy Haun’s art is smooth, as well, complementing Moore’s storytelling skills. Clean, simple, and suitably rendered, Haun’s art displays competence in his craft.

Walker is his own man. Danger is his mistress — next to the lights of Hollywood, that is.
