Shock Rockets (2000)

An Image Comic. (W) Kurt Busiek (P) Stuart Immonen (I) Wade Von Grawbadger Strap yourself in -- the first release from the most anticipated new line in comics, GORILLA COMICS, is here! Kurt Busiek (Astro City, Avengers, Marvels), Stuart Immonen (Superman, Final Night, Legion of Super-Heroes) and Wade Von Grawbadger (Teen Titans, Starman) join forces to bring you the FIRST GUARANTEED HIT OF THE NEW MILLENNIUM: SHOCKROCKETS! A 6-Issue Monthly Limited Series! The time: Late in the next century. The place: A damaged, battered Earth, struggling to rebuild after a devastating alien invasion. The stars: The Shockrockets, an elite quadron of specialized aircraft - a hybrid of human and alien technology that repulsed the alien invasion and now guards Earth against threats from all quarters. To Alejandro Cruz, a young, machine-mad, blue-collar Los Angeleno, the Shockrockets pilots are Earth’s favored few -- the masters of their destiny, who make the world tick instead of enduring shortages and hardship. But when, in a fluke, Cruz becomes a Shockrocket pilot himself, he learns what it’s like from the other side -- the pressure, the responsibility, and the power of being a major player on a global stage, including dealing with some very nasty enemies. Cruz is in for the ride of his life, but he’ll have to learn fast -- both in the cockpit and out -- if he’s going to survive! SHOCKROCKETS will feature all the humanity, drama and thrilling adventure that fans have come to expect from Busiek and Immonen. "Our aim is to make you smell the jet fuel and feel the sonic booms,” says Kurt. "To step right into Alejandro’s life, and his world.” Plus: An all-new exclusive prologue story to next month’s Gorilla launch: EMPIRE, by Mark Waid (JLA, Kingdom Come) and Barry Kitson (JLA Year One, Brave And The Bold)! SHOCKROCKETS! On time and in your paws in April! The FIRST from GORILLA...and only from IMAGE.
