The Adventures of Basil and Moebius vol.2 The Shadow Gambit
Alaric Moebius and Basil Fox are two lovable scoundrels looking to make a quick fortune. In the employment of the mysterious – and other-worldly -- “Collector,” they find themselves on a globe-trotting adventure through the gambling dens of Monaco, the ruins of a U-boat bunker in Germany, the skyscrapers of Japan, the waters off the Falkland Islands, and a mysterious Nazi facility deep under the South Pole, all in search of secret powerful weapons smuggled away after WWII. All the while battling mercenaries, ninjas, pirates, undead assassins, and Nazi robots. A rip-roaring tale of action and rollercoaster thrills! Created by Ryan Schifrin and co-written by the legendary Larry Hama (G.I. Joe, Wolverine)! “A delightful romp mixing pulpish delight with bold, eye-catching graphics and instantly likable characters. Old school fun for the 21st century!” - GUILLERMO DEL TORO (Director/Producer, Pacific Rim, Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth) “Think Artemus Gordon and James West, or Fritz Lieber’s Fafhrd and Gray Mouser. Now tweak the setting and have a blast.” - R.A. SALVATORE (New York Times best-selling author, Forgotten Realms, The DemonWars Saga)
