The US border with Mexico has been overrun with lawless coyotes flowing across the Rio Grande, bringing in weapons, smuggling illegal drugs, and trafficking sex slaves across the country! Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed and seemingly powerless, while the U.S. government refuses to help. In fact, the administration seems to actively support open borders…
But when the violence reaches his doorstep, one man takes matters into his own hands…
Private American follows Marcos Zamora, a patriotic, first generation Cuban-American and a former Army Green Beret, as he and his partner Gustavo battle criminals crossing the southern border, including cartels, human traffickers, Iraqi, Afghan, and Lebanese terrorists, and enemies of the state who are taking advantage of the border chaos to bring in desperate migrants, fentanyl, and suitcase bombs, leaving thousands of victims spread across the landscape.
But none of them counted on a skilled counter-insurgency by men like Marcos and Gus, and none of them can predict where or when they will strike back next.
While U.S. border patrol can’t find the pair, many agents secretly root for them. Meanwhile the Vile Council, a syndicate of cartel bosses and Chinese fentanyl smugglers, frustrated by this pair of skilled vigilantes, decides to bring in the world’s most feared assassin in order to help rid them of this ‘Private American‘.
Eisner-winning comicbook writer Mike Baron (Punisher, Nexus, Flash) and veteran comics illustrator Richard Bonk (Superman, Teen Titans, Witchblade) present one of the most explosive action tales that could actually be going on this very moment at America’s southern border.
- 72 pages+ of pulse pounding, action packed story
- Full Color, premium print
- Proudly printed in the USA
- Rated MATURE for graphic violence & adult situations
Marcos is a mash-up between The Punisher, whom Baron wrote for over 5 years at Marvel Comics, and their star spangled Avenger Captain America. And much like Baron’s last graphic novel Thin Blue Line, a decidedly pro-police action-thriller, this book’s subject matter will likely prevent it from ever finding a home at a mainstream comics publishing house, so we’re publishing this one ourselves.
ALL backers will receive prints of both Richard Bonk’s virgin cover art and the hand painted limited edition variant cover from the legendary Steve Rude!
Private American is a gripping and explosive action adventure of a single-minded, patriotic American desperate to defend his community, and his country, against human traffickers, drug smugglers, and murderous terrorists.
Private American sheds light on one of the most polarizing contemporary issues in America while delivering action and drama. No lectures. No screeds. Just pure, adrenaline-drenched story-telling.
