Awesome Tales #2

World War II, hardboiled cops, and a band of amateur ghost-hunters! It's all here in Awesome Tales #2 ! Awesome Tales returns with a new spine-tingler by R. Allen Leider -- "Der Feurher Mabuse," documents a heretofore unchronicled exploit of Dr. Mabuse, the legendary super-criminal from novels and silent films! As World War II rages onward, the Nazi hierarchy begins questioning Hitler's judgment. Is the mind of Dr. Mabuse pulling the nefarious strings? "The Last Redhead" (by John L. French) is a voluptuous foray into hardboiled fiction. Like Mabuse, this dishy dame is pulling the strings on a hitman, but she's using her luscious body as bait and payment! In "Cruelty" by C. J. Henderson, you'll follow a supernatural detective into a museum housing artifacts that draw the appreciation of an ancient evil. Adding a touch of supernatural (and levity) to the festivities, KT Pinto's "Something Fishy This Way Comes" continues the exploits of amateur ghost-hunters. An abandoned fish cannery-turned-whorehouse-turned-blight becomes the backdrop and main set-piece for a hokey "ghost tour" -- until the ghosts decide to add some authenticity to the proceedings! New illustrations by Ed Coutts. Cover design by Rich Harvey.
