Pete the P. O. 'd Postal Worker : Pete Unplugged

Break out your kevlar! Pete the P.O.’d Postal Worker i’s gonna give you both barrels of full metal jacket, full auto, no prisoners taken, Pete adventures in his first Trade Paperback.

All Pete lives for is to deliver mail but his Boss fears him, hates him and sends him to neighborhoods that will kill him.

These are the first five issues of Pete that drew raves from Previews, Comic Retailer, Wizard, Comic Buyers Guide and Postal Workers nationwide.

You get a full 142 pages of art that will make you respect your local postal worker, if not fear them. Going Postal is what Pete does on a good day.

The explosive first issue finds Pete relegated to mail sorting to keep him away from the public. A postal worker gets shot when a gang robs him the day Social Security Checks are delivered. NO ONE wants to take over the route, yet the Mail-Must-Go-Through (Based on an actual occurrence in Washington DC). Pete is the only one who will take it and he hits the streets after years of sorting mail. What happens next is all the mail gets delivered, but the gang, a pit bull, and miscellaneous other incidences results in Pete’'s incarceration in a maximum security prison. In Issue 2 his incarceration is short lived, as are the lives of fellow inmates. He scares the inmates to much so he gets back on the streets for unforgettable deliveries to a militia group, terrorists and carnivorous invading aliens escaping from Roswell, New Mexico. They are also obstructing mail service which makes Pete very, VERY ANGRY. It takes both issue 3 & 4 to finish them all off. Issue 5 finishes with a well-deserved vacation in England, replete with girlfriend, heartbreak, Knighthood, and an international incident. Says Previews Small Press Snapshot, "Imagine Quentin Tarantino directing ‘Il Postino.’"

Going Postal is what Pete does on a Good Day, on a bad day ... You don't want to know.

Great gift to give that United States Post Office USPS, Postal Worker to take the edge off his day.

Marcus P. Meleton Jr. is an aerospace engineer, writer and mediocre surfer. He has a degree in Computer Science (University of Southwestern Louisiana), which did not aid him in becoming a chick magnet as he had intended so he went on to his first career as an Air Force Officer at the Pentagon. He left the service five years later as a Captain and obtained an MBA at the University of Georgia before returning to work in Dallas, Texas and then Southern California. His first book was the satirical Nice Guys Don’t Get Laid, which was written to train men how to become the Marlon Brando / James Dean disaster women ache for. Everything went downhill from there with appearances on GERALDO, MONTEL, and LEEZA, and over 1000 radio interviews internationally.

His second book was an environmental effort, Hunting For Lawyers, which proposed a hunting season for lawyers to reduce the herds to a manageable size. Then it was on to The Adventures of Liberal Man and Pete the P.O.’d Postal Worker comics as he digressed back to an adolescent state. With Madonna and Bill Clinton as media worthy for this generation, it was only natural that Meleton’s satire has garnered a huge amount of coverage including USA Today, The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Dallas Morning News, San Francisco Examiner and The Washington Times.

Meleton lives in Southern California and is the father of Brittany and Marcus III, and the obnoxious husband of his lovely wife Marjorie.
