The Purple Scar, Vol 4 enters Airship 27 Productions' prestigious roster, with stories by Gene Moyers ("Seven Swans a' Swimming), Felix Cruz ("The Scar's Close Shave"), Fred Adams Jr ("The Blackmail Heist") and Michael Housel ("Golem Clay").
As pulp enthusiasts know, The Purple Scar is renowned plastic surgeon, Miles Murdock, who for vengeful, extracurricular activity, hunts criminals during the night. To strike fear into those he stalks, Murdock wears a mask molded from his dead brother's acid-torn face (a grisly fate dealt by gangsters). Captain Dan Griffin; "sticky-fingered" valet, Tommy Pedlar; and love-interest nurse, Dale Jordan interact with the intense danger and intrigue that cross the brooding crusader's path.
To accompany this edition's tales, Vol 4 flaunts a raging, front cover by the amazing Adam Shaw, a chilling, back cover by the seasoned Rob Davis and noir-ish interiors by the nimble Chuck Bordell.
Airship 27's masterminds, Ron Fortier and Rob Davis, deserve humongous credit for keeping this classic, pulp character thriving, and like Airship 27's prior, Purple Scar editions, Vol 4 hits it out of the park with hair-raising tension.
