Former Philadelphia 76ers President Pat Croce knows a lot about pirates and their history. He founded the Pirate Soul Museum in 2005, and now he is teaming with Zenescope Entertainment to bring No Quarter pirate comic to print.
NO QUARTER is a “hardcore and gritty pirate series unlike anything seen before.†says Zenescope VP Ralph Tedesco. The story follows Charlie Drake, a young man who finds that his bloodline is anything but ordinary then sets out to find a new life and in the process becomes a legend.
Zenescope has announced a preview issue of No Quarter will be available at the New York Comic Con on February 6, 2009, with the 12-issue mini-series release in May 2009.

Ooo! I’m always up for a good straight-up genre comic. So often for this medium publishers require some silly twist. –A western… with vampires!— No thanks, I just want a good western!
I heard Robert Kirkman, to get The Walking Dead published, had to pitch it as zombies… caused by aliens! And then the series builds up to a big confrontation between the humans and the alien invasion! But what the public wanted, what the publisher wouldn’t consider on its own merit, was a straight up zombie horror comic.
I’ve been on a war and western kick lately, but I’ve been hankering for a good pirate series. Unless this turns out to be something completely different than what I’m thinking it is, I’ll be checking this out and hoping it’s good. ‘Anyone read El Cazador?
