In this graphic novel, following the introductory volume of Saint Germaine: Shadows Fall, Reed is joined by some noteworthy artists in providing stand alone stories that explore more of the legendary figure of Reed’s imagination in Saint Germaine. In The Man in the Iron Mask , Reed is joined by artists Guy Davis and Andy Bennett as Germaine ventures into the dungeons to confront the un-named prisoner who was forced to conceal his identity for life. The secret of what lay behind the iron mask is revealed. Bennett joins up with Sandman artist, Vincent Locke in an exploration of evil though history and Reed gives his spin on the mysterious and avenging figure known as Kilroy. Giovanni Casanova, the world's greatest lover was so much more than just his amorous affairs. Reed teams up with James E. Lyle as Germaine and Casanova reflect back on their life together. Tom Biondolillio and Larry Shuput team up as Germaine looks up an old friend and finds that she has turned her back on eternity and instead is mired in the communion of the ancient Sioux ritual, the Ghost Dance. Even if you haven’t read the initial storyline, the graphic novel does a great job of bringing readers in to the story without missing any skipping a beat. REVIEWS: Saint Germaine is history and the metaphysical blended into one, a cosmos of its own legend and fact woven into the fabric of a new reality. Eclectic, dense with meaning, and by no means a quick or easy read, the comic takes its pleasure in not explaining the alpha and omega of its main character. The result is a character we do not completely understand with a history we cannot penetrate---in short, the most intriguing immortal in comics since Neil Gaiman's Hob Gadling. Those willing to do more than just flip through a story will find much gold to mine here. If you want a comic book that will entertain you, there are plenty of them out there. If you want a comic that will entertain you and make you think, pick up Saint Germaine. --BARRY LYGA, DIAMOND COMICS DISTRIBUTORS In this great graphic novel, you will see the friendship that the legendary Count Saint Germaine had with another legend, that of Giovanni Casanova! Gary goes through a lot of research to make this fictional story fall within the foundation of truth about both of these colorful characters. So, besides getting an entertaining story, you also get a history lesson!! You will learn about the courtesans, who manipulated the king and his consorts, like Casanova. There is an intriguing web that will lead you to the Illuminati, the Vatican, the Spanish Inquisition, the Man in the Iron Mask and more!! Saint Germaine is a churning thriller, electrifying, fast paced, compelling and a gripping page turner! Gary Reed builds suspense to almost unbearable extremes, the kind of mysterious noir setting that readers will love! --PAUL DALE ROBERTS, JAZMA ONLINE Whoa. Who would've expected literature in comics? Neil Gaiman does it, but most of the time attempts by others sound over indulgent or pretentious. Saint Germaine doesn't. It works and it works well. Better than well, this is one absorbing and fantastic story. It is literate and entertaining at the same time. It has elements of horror mixed in with philosophy and yet somehow it all blends together into one great package. The story is one of the most engaging I've ever read in comics and the art is top notch. This is more than a winner, Saint Germaine is a stunning example of the power of the medium. It should be exalted. --JOHN L. KRUZE, COMIC REVIEW

Graphic Novels

Sin Eternal is more than just a re-tooling of the immortal classic, Dante's Inferno. It plants itself firmly in the modern world and away from the political crimes that dominated Dante's work. It brings a very basic questioning of the man's faith as he witnesses some of the most horrendous punishments that could be exacted. The story covers the travels of the man who is sent to hell to examine the various torments and punishments that the sinners of Earth are forced to face each moment of eternity. From the slovenly gluttons to the fates of the suicides, from the heretics to the thieves, a variety of different levels are covered. From the ferry of Charon, the man is taken into the very depths of evil. He must escape the giant creature, Minos to the swallowing jaws of Cerebus. From the Dance of the Harlots who abused love to the gluttons who are encased in solid gold. Witnessing the Heretics, imprisoned in furnace like cells to the Industrialists, those who are taken over by the very machines they created. Those who kill in the name of God are forced into an un-ending battle of mutilation which leads to the River of Blood with the souls of Idi Amin, Hitler, and Stalin washing the crimson onto the shores. The Maze of Eternity blends into a surreal world of mystic images and fallen idols until he finally reaches the very source of evil itself, the Devil. But its not the traditional view, because after all, Lucifer was considered the Morning Star...the beautful angel. All is not as it might first appear.
