“I’m an American. A good guy. A family man. A lawyer. A success story. I sold out.”

Issue # 1 of American Caper in comic shops November 12.

Verona, Wyoming is rattled by a murder, a van crash of smuggled immigrants, and three escaped fugitives on the run. William visits Marty Blowman, the erratic, HGH-swilling billionaire turned cowboy, who reveals a little too much of his insecurities. Meanwhile, Orson violates his Mormon oath in Mexico, seeks redemption, and finds his wife at home baking pie for a concerning visitor.

Verona, Wyoming. A small town like any other.
A land of hunter and hunted. Apex predators… and regulations waiting to be broken.

American Caper comic book series coming soon, in partnership with Dark Horse Comics. Details and reveal trailer coming next week at San Diego Comic Con.

Set in the near future, A BETTER PARADISE Volume One: An Aftermath tells the story of the ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive video game project that goes very wrong. As the software they developed starts to produce unexpected and disturbing results, the project is shut down and left abandoned and undiscovered. Until now.

Adapted from the chart-topping A BETTER PARADISE audio fiction series, the novel will go deeper into the origins and secrets of the mysterious Tyburn Utopias video game project - as told by the tortured souls now on the run from the AI entity they played a part in creating and unleashing.

“At its heart, this is a mythological story about video game development. I have always felt this is fascinating source material for narrative fiction and am finally getting the opportunity to explore it with A Better Paradise Volume One: An Aftermath.” – Dan Houser
