| [VO] Mr. Machine-Gun - Arms and the Man I Sing |
"This very special seventh issue of The Amazing Adventures of the Escapist features...no Escapist whatsoever! Instead, Pulitzer-winning author Michael Chabon takes over the entire issue with a sensational story introducing the mysterious Mr. Machine Gun, a character torn straight from the pages of Chabon's The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay.
Legendary duo Kavalier and Clay created scads of fascinating characters, and Mr. Machine Gun was one of the best. A former guinea pig of Nazi bioexperimentation, the WWII hero turned to a postwar career in politics. Now, dealing with an intensely personal tragedy, Senator ""Ben Vanderslice"" struggles to once more gain control over his murderous right hand!
With Chabon aided by artist Eduardo Barreto (Batman, Aliens vs. Predator), you'll swear that you're reading the original Sunshine Comics edition--now an impossible find!
Who is this classic character that inspired a runaway issue-length tale from a Pulitzer winner? Find out in this snub-nosed and smoking seventh installment of the popular quarterly anthology!"
