Boondock Saints hit comic stores in May
Press Release
It’s official! The BOONDOCK SAINTS make the move to comics this May, in the two issue limited series “IN NOMINE PATRIS†from 12-Gauge Comics.
TROY DUFFY’s original BOONDOCK SAINTS film is one of the most successful independent movies of all time, with a fiercely loyal and devoted fan base. Now, on the heels of the recent theatrical release of THE BOONDOCK SAINTS II: ALL SAINTS DAY, this new limited series marks the first official story to take place outside of the cult-hit films. Already tagged as both “Certified Cool†and a “Staff Pick†by Diamond Comic Distributors, THE BOONDOCK SAINTS: IN NOMINE PATRIS is destined to take the comic book marketplace by storm.
Written by BOONDOCK SAINTS creator/writer/director TROY DUFFY and comic scribe J.B. LOVE, (with art by newcomer GUUS FLOOR and covers by CHRIS BRUNNER) “In Nomine Patris†is the perfect companion to the recent movie (coming to DVD and BLU-RAY March 9th). Conceived as a “deleted and extended sequence”, the comics expand on the story and characters in ALL SAINTS DAY and delve deeper into the secret origin of the “Original Saint”, IL DUCE.
Join the McMANUS BROTHERS as they uncover the full extent of their family’s legacy of violence, leaving a path of vengeance in their wake!
This is just the beginning of the Boondock Saints in comics! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!
Trace Adkins becomes comic book hero
Trace Adkins fans now have one more reason to love him; his likeness is featured in the new Luke McBain series from 12 Gauge Comics.
The title character of Luke McBain is drawn to Adkins’ likeness and reflects some of the 6’6″ singer’s philosophy. The story takes place when McBain returns home to rural Louisiana after serving 14 years in prison, having taken the fall for a crime he didn’t commit. He finds himself in a town now controlled by greed and corruption, and he’s the only one with the courage to set things right. Although the book contains some violence, it is generally suitable for all ages.
“The McBain character became kind of a reflection of Trace Adkins’ entertainment persona,” notes writer David Tischman in a prepared release. “It breathes a real life personality into the fictional character which is something we wanted. Trace helped a lot with that, and it’s something that I think we’ve worked hard to write into the character.”
The McBain series kicks off in November to coincide with Adkins’ tour, and will sell for $3.99.

Armory Wars Arrives This Week
12 Gauge comics dropped a quick note to remind us that its new series Armory Wars by Claudio Sanchez. The five issue series chronicles the life and death of Coheed and Cambria, a young couple who discover their lives have been a lie, that memories have been imprinted on their past and that their future is tied to a deeper — and perhaps more sinister“ purpose within the universe.
Image Comics will be distributing the series, and have announced Sanchez will appear at Wizard Wolrd Philly this weekend signing the first issue and conducting a panel on Armory Wars.
For more information on the comic series, please visit www.theamorywars.com and www.12gaugecomics.com.
