BRONZE STAR TWO Enter the madness with Mike Baron and Pat Broderick

THE BRONZE STAR Enters Book II.  Found upon FundMyComic.com/Bronzestar2

Mike Baron is a long time comic writer who has produced solid runs, and unique humor and personal traits of characters. Pat Broderick has illustrated books from Micronauts, Fury of Firestorm, Batman and Captain Atom to the present, the Bronze Star. Here without the constraints of appealing to a certain known audience, Baron and Broderick create a work that is clearly weird fiction. Such a magnificent effort takes advantage of the open range, the mountains, and weird beasts and events of a time without previous attention. 

The effort to create this work is one that uses outside means of traditional publishing. Some of that is the collapse of much of the ways books came to market in the past. For whatever reason it happens, it is good that it does. This work presents a vast horizon to horizon look at a place we might all look back and see being oddly realistic if also powerful and different.

I call Mike Baron my brother, and he is. Among those who were involved in my early days of the comic world, his works were long my favorites, so I am not speaking from a place of an opportunity, or to prop up my own page. However, it is fun to have the opportunity to share this project.
