The Visionnaire

Victorian physicist Dr. Hannibal Steel of Scotland posseses an unknown power after suffering a gruesome laboratory explosion. The explosion burned his whole body and fused his eyes, rendering him blind for the rest of his life. On the night he decides to end his life by stabbing himself, he discovers he's able to see the knife in his peripheral vision. He realizes he's completely blind by day but at night he can see, though only in black and white.

On a stormy night during his recovery, he is awakened by muted taps on his window. A little girl summons him to follow her into the woods, which he does, until he comes across a small mount on the ground where she disappears. He digs the ground and finds a small skull and fragment of little bones. Reporting the incident to Scotland Yard, he realizes that his "vision" is not only physical, but psychic. Embracing his newfound powers, he helps the police department solve old, unsolved crimes like that of the lost girl. They asks his services for the greater good to help in finding out lost and missing people. With the help of his friend Caiphas, they embark on the path of solving crimes using his newly discovered visionary power. This is the beginning...

MASK OF THE GARGOYLE: The Rocket's Red Glare

Duncan Greyford was a world famous architect until he created his masterpiece, the Greyford Tower in the heart of Boston. A radical structure blending the austere features of the old world gothic with the straight, bold lines of nouveau art. His critics, fearing his rising popularity, attacked his work and labeled it the Ugliest Edifice since the Tower of London. A fragile soul, Greyford failed to defend himself and sank into depressed life and paranoia. In the end he locked himself on the top floor of the tower and spent his remaining days as a recluse. He eventually succumbed to his own inner demons and hung himself from one of the dozen gargoyles adorning the roof. Unbeknown to the public, Duncan Greyford left behind a son. Nathan Greyford grew into manhood in the shadows of his father’s psychotic reputation. Attempting to salvage his father’s name, Nathan disguises himself as the macabre crime-fighter, the people called the Gargoyle. At night he prowls the rooftops and alleyways of the city maintaining a semblance of order in a corrupt and chaotic world.

In this thrilling episode, remnants of the Third Reich have smuggled a V2 rocket into the heart of Boston. Their plan, to DESTROY one of America's greatest historical treasures on the eve of the 4th of July. Will the macabre vigilante save the night and America's artifact from impending destruction?

Moontracker

It is a time before the wheel, man's defenses against the environment are stick, stone and fire. There are more terrible things than the sabre tooth cats and cave lions to fear. The devourer known as Kaagra, witch of the Poisoned Mountain, has awakened and set about her feasting upon the villagers with grisly abandon.

Peyru is a prehistoric journeyman and guide. Of those that remain of his clan, few take up the protective mantle of Moontracker. Fewer still leave their isolated village to safeguard the land s people, a task handed down to his people by the moon goddess Lun.

Though the villagers fear Peyru s people, and blame him for their crimes, he is all that stands between their survival and the witch Kaagra s insatiable voracity.
