The Five Fists of Science

You'll love this:
FIVE FISTS OF SCIENCE GN

True story: in 1899, Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla decided to end war forever. With Twain's connections and Tesla's inventions, they went into business, selling world peace.

So what happened?

Only now can the tale be told-- in which Twain and Tesla collided with Edison and Morgan, an evil science cabal merging the Black Arts and the Industrial Age. Turn of the century New York City sets the stage for a titanic battle over the very fate of the mankind.

The header link goes to Matt Fraction's website and the info about this project; or you could just skip that and download the 22-page black-and-white PDF preview, keeping in mind that the final graphic novel will be full color.

This will either inspire Tony to finally start prepping Pulp Heroes Season 2, or make him despair. Possibly both.

Edit: Brandon just posted an hour or so before this, so scroll down and answer his question about starting a wiki.

Also, I simply copied and pasted Fraction's own description from the linked page, so "the very fate of the mankind" is his error, not mine.

Great stuff Phil

Thanks for the link. I have been researching Tesla for an upcoming game session, so this is some great source material for me.
