Veteran Police Sergeant Clarke is gunned down by hoodlums, shot in
the back of the head. As he lay dying, a rush of blood to his face
formed a macabre mask, a crimson mask When his son, Doctor Robert
"Bob" Clarke, saw that strange stigmata he interpreted it as a
sign, inspiring him to become his father's avenger, the Crimson
Mask Once again Airship 27 Productions digs into the dusty vaults
of long forgotten, second tier pulp heroes to revitalize another
great character in brand new, exciting adventures. Writers J. Walt
Layne, Terrence McCauley, C. William Russette and Gary Lovisi took
on the challenge of creating new, bizarre mysteries for the
pharmacist turned crime-fighter and in doing so have put together a
terrific collection of fast paced pulp action echoing the thrills
of the original classics. Aided by retired Police Commissioner
Warrick, his former college roommate David Small and lovely nurse
Sandra Gray, the Crimson Mask must hunt down the villainous
distributors of tainted heroin, stop an invisible thief, learn who
ignited the latest city gang war and solve the mystery of a killer
targeting his father's allies. Hold on to your fedoras, jump on the
running board and get ready for blazing thrills galore, pulp fans,
as the Crimson Mask is back

News For All, Justice for the Innocent and Weak That is the
Masthead of The Partisan and the mission of its keepers in Pro Se
Productions' action packed tribute to the printed press- NEWSHOUNDS
Dogged reporters, crusty editors, copyboys and cub photographers
with dreams of grandeur. Pressmen who know the city lives and
breathes by what they print. Characters like Editor 'Red Dillinger,
reporters Viv Bailey and Ted Boland, photographer Margie Haviland,
and more all work for The Partisan, a 1950s paper partial to the
common man, to righting the wrongs done against the housewives and
the blue collars And this gaggle of hard bitten, hard fighting men
and women are known near and far to those who love them and those
who wish to see them dead Do No Wrong in Their City unless you want
it covered by the Newshounds Started in 1930 to stand up for the
little person and to protect the rights of the rightless. The
Partisan has always been the paper that focused on both accurate
news reporting and standing up for the common citizen against crime
and corruption of all types. This led to a style of writing both
factual and fiery that the paper is known for. Authors Kevin Paul
Shaw Broden, Shannon Muir, and J. Walt Layne bring life to the
chaotic adventures of a larger than life newspaper staff in this
three story collection. Only two types of people work at The
Partisan- Those truly interested in standing up for truth and
justice and what's right...and those with a death wish or nowhere
else to go. Either way, they make great stories for Pro Se
Productions' NEWSHOUNDS
In a world where no one can be trusted and no one is safe, spies
are everywhere. In the kitchen of the small house on the corner.
High above a city at the top of a skyscraper under construction. In
the checkout line at the local grocery. People with skills unheard
of by most normal citizens living normal every day lives as
accountants, teachers, plumbers, and more. Every day existence is
their only battle...until a lone voice on the other end of the
phone or in the static of a radio or even whispering in their ear
from over their shoulder welcomes back to the war. Their own
personal codename followed by one word - GEMINI. And then the
housewife, the normal joe, Mr. and Mrs. America become the
deadliest espionage agents this country has ever created, members
of the top secret initiative known by very few as COVERT OPS:
GEMINI Pro Se Productions, concept creator Tommy Hancock, and
authors J. Walt Layne, Wesley Smith, and Tim Lasiuta proudly
presents COVERT OPS: GEMINI. In the tradition of Mission:
Impossible, COVERT OPS: GEMINI delves into the world of
international espionage and looks at the men and women who make up
the deadliest team of spies ever. Led by Steven Graves, roguish and
calculating agent, and overseen by the mysterious Officer James,
members of Covert Ops; Gemini live regular lives, hold down normal
jobs, build families and careers, until they are needed. Then they
step away from their desks, their aprons, their very existences and
put skills outside of their normal persona into use as they were
trained to. What follows for them may be failure or even death.
But, if they succeed, not only does the world go on, but they get
the one thing back they value most- their covers. Classic Spy
Fiction at its best. COVERT OPS: GEMINI from Pro Se Productions
Welcome To Champion City. A megatropolis it isn't. But you couldn't
arrive at that conclusion by looking at the police blotter. Most
everyone in the city would tell you that a day in Champion City is
a like...A WEEK IN HELL Pro Se Productions introduces the first
volume of the Champion City Series of Digest Novels by author J.
Walt Layne A WEEK IN HELL It all starts with a girl and a bag of
cash. Candi was the kind of gal who could give a guy indigestion.
She was poison, with looks to kill, a reluctant moll looking for a
way out. Thurman was a young flatfoot, not necessarily the knight
in shining armor. He went to shake out a brawl and nearly fed her
his gun, was it any wonder he got a date? They spend an evening on
the run, but where does it lead? Just when it looks like it's over,
BOOM Is it a dead girl, a bag of somebody else's dough, or both?
Written in the style of slang ridden, bullet riddled classic crime
Pulp and mystery fiction, Layne's A WEEK IN HELL drops the reader
square into all the corruption and corrosion of human spirit that
is Champion City. Dames, gats, gumshoes, and brass cupcakes die,
shoot, run, and glitter from every page. A WEEK IN HELL by J. Walt
Layne, courtesy of Pro Se Productions With a stunning cover by
Terry Pavlet, format and print design by Sean Ali and Ebook Design
