Synopsis
When down and out alien exterminator, Heath Huston stumbles upon an extraterrestrial legion of amoebas preparing to annihilate the Earth, he's forced to choose between the bottle and resuming his roll as a peace keeper, as The Last Fear Agent. Heath's former band of soldiers, the Fear Agents was comprised of a group of the last remaining humans on Earth, whose sworn duty was the protection of their home world against alien invaders. A number of years after preventing a large scale invasion of Earth, the Fear Agents were all slaughtered in a mysterious incident.
Reviews
Stuff Flash Gordon and Die Hard's John McClane into one of the gleefully gory sf/horror comics of the 50s, and you'll have this pulp-inspired graphic novel, the first in the Fear Agent series. Leaving no genre stone unturned, the creators toss out a series of beautifully executed setups that follow hard-drinking, foulmouthed, down-and-out Heath Houston, alien exterminator. When Houston stumbles upon a plot to destroy Earth, he embarks on a mission that reignites the fire of his determination. It's a briefly lit fire, however, as the story ends right smack in the middle, with no hint of what's to come. For patient readers, though, particularly those who enjoy nonstop action and clever sf ideas and environments, this hits the stratosphere. Karp, Jesse
