Laughin' Boy

Laughin' Boy

Illustration By J. K. Potter

Dust jacket by J.K. Potter

America at the end of the Twentieth Century was a dangerous place. It was a place conceived in liberty, yet threatened by the forces of oppression and evil. It was a place where fanatics--political and religious, foreign and domestic--sharpened their swords to attack an innocent populace whose love of freedom was matched only by its lack of irony.

It was a sick place in need of sick heroes.

And so they came:

PORNO GIRL, whose consumption of filth was merely a disguise to conceal her purity of soul...

THE RACIST RANGER, whose repugnant jibber-jabber masked the fact that his strength was as the strength of ten...

And Danny Clayton, the infamous LAUGHIN' BOY -- born in tragedy, caught in a despicable act -- who would become both the most beloved and most hated man on earth.

In other words: Its Savior.

Or not.

It would depend on whether he lived long enough for the rest of us to find out.
