Think about a man ...

Have you ever thought it was time for a different kind of hero? Well ...

Think about a man: suave, hard, devil-may-care, an ex-agent, the best that ever was. Call him MAXIM GUNN.

Think about the dark realms, the hidden corners, the places where things lurk, things that live only in our imaginations, things that just should not be.

Think about hostile aliens, and vampires and werewolves. Think about priceless jewels with unearthly powers, and demons controlled by computers.

Think about the people who come to MAXIM GUNN for help, help he cannot deny for that’s just not in his makeup.

Think about MAXIM GUNN the man. A man who avoids violence, but meets it head on if he can’t. A man who’d rather think his way out of trouble, but whose fighting skills are legendary.

Think about a contrary man who might say that knowing there is a trap is the first step to avoiding it, and then smiles and adds, but into battle, murder and sudden death, good Lord deliver me, right up to the neck.
