PREVIEW: RPM #3 by Mick Foley, Shane Riches & Jose Holder

Revere is in some deep doo-doo, as this high-rate messenger tries to deliver his package... his heightened sensory perception and the Matrix-like mad skills it gives him are generally enough to keep him out of trouble... but then, there was this girl...
here's the Sales Pitch:
A stunning secret is revealed as wrestling-superstar Mick Foley amps up the action and intrigue in his fast-paced thriller! Revere now knows that the hired guns on his tail were not after the diamond -- problem is he’s inadvertently let them acquire their real target! To retrieve the priceless package, Revere must tackle the dangers of the Washington DC tunnels to infiltrate a high security embassy. But can even his hyper-kinetic depth perception save him as he navigates underground passageways, narrow hallways, and the confines of an embassy filled with thugs ordered to shoot to kill?

Good stuff from Foley, Riches and nice art again from Jose Holder (Brian Stelfreeze's cover doesn't suck either). There's no money in the budget for this right now, but I'm definitely looking to cop this trade when it comes out!

holla!

John Henry concept art by Jose Holder

John Henry was my favorite fable growing up, so when I saw Jose Holder's concept art for an updated version he's working on, I knew I would want to share them here on GhettoManga...

Jose Holder (Legion: Prophets, RPM) is relatively new to me (click here for a preview of RPM), but he's extremely talented and working on tons of new stuff, so I'll keep my eyes peeled. Jose is working on this John Henry story with writer Andrew Carl for an upcoming anthology for Digital Webbing.

holla!

In Stores Now: RPM #2 by Mick Foley and Jose Holder

I don't know how I let 12 Gauge Comics' RPM #1 get by me... sorry 'bout that. Here's some preview art from issue #2...

RPM concept art by series artist Jose Holder
Here's the Sales Pitch
Born with hyperkinetic depth perception, Revere sees and reacts to the world faster than anyone. Partnered with a beautiful liaison, Revere is hired by a mysterious corporation to safely move a package from Boston to Miami and pushes head-on against international criminals and shadowy government agencies. Now with an army of hired mercenaries on his tail, Revere races down the East Coast with the world’s largest synthetic diamond in-tow. When a helicopter loaded with gunmen hurtles down from the sky in full attack mode, Revere uses his hyper-kinetic depth perception in a must-see, “Holy $#!t” fashion. Fasten your seatbelts and see the speed, as R.P.M. takes you on a super-charged, non-stop action ride—with twists and turns that only the hardcore mind of  Bestselling author and World Heavyweight Champion Mick Foley could conceive. Don’t miss it!

This mess looks dope... Relative newcomer Jose Holder is impressive and the Stelfreeze covers don't hurt either! I gotta track this joint down...
 holla.
