They came for his master…but they didn’t plan for him. An elite team of officers tasked with taking down a local drug kingpin are prepared to do whatever it takes to take down their target – dead or alive. With all available units mobilized to make the bust, it’s a small army that knocks down the dealer’s door, ready to get their man. But it’s not man that waits for them on the other side, but man’s best friend. Weapons won’t save them, they can only hope to God their prayers might – the night DINGOLIATH comes to town.

Something’s rotten at Big Caligula’s Pizza, location #212 — and it’s not just last week’s mozzarella. Cash tips have fallen off a cliff, and the question on everyone’s lips is, why? Has service really gone downhill, or is there something, or someone, more sinister to blame?

Corporate smells trouble, and they’ve called in their best man for the job. Enter, Hank Howard. Armed with a mind as sharp as a tack, nerves of steel, and an ironclad stomach, Hank’s about to dive into a mystery hotter than a fresh-baked pie and his only lead won’t talk. Literally. It’s the location’s mascot, Biggie. The employees who don the oversized Roman Emperor garb are forbidden from talking in front of customers. Ruins the illusion for the kids.

Thankfully, Hank’s not flying solo. Location #212 just happens to be the stomping grounds of Hank’s old buddy, the pizza crust loving dog, Cali. Together, they’ll sniff out clues, chomp down leads, and uncover secrets that could rock the pizza world to its core.

Ordained #3 is the 80s action we’ve come to love about this series

Posted on by

Betrayed by the men he thought he could trust, Father Roy is left bloodied and grieving the innocents caught in the crossfire of an attempted hit. Now, he’s on the hunt for the one man who can put an end to the bloodshed–and the one soul he’s desperate to save, Cormac Byrne. But Byrne has no intention of being saved. Instead, he unleashes his most lethal asset–the ruthless, blue-collar butcher known only as THE MACHINE. Cornered by his deadliest enemy yet and confronted with the vow he swore never to break, Father Roy must decide how far he’s willing to go to save a man who wants him dead. Can Roy save Byrne’s soul without sacrificing his own?

Posted on by

Hank can’t stay out of the action for long. Two pizza perps have stolen one of Big Caligula’s gleaming new food trucks and think they can get away clean. Detective Hank Howard can’t let that happen. And this time he’s bringing along Southeast Regional Manager Barbara Knox for the ride! Hank Howard, Pizza Detective: The Fair Play kicks off the next adventure on August 5.

For the first time, Hank must team-up with Big Caligula’s Southeast Regional Manager Barb Knox, to recover the stolen whip. Together they’ll go full-throttle in a high-speed pursuit of justice, facing down a barrage of bullets, high-octane explosions, and two pizza perps who are willing to do whatever it takes to get away clean.

Tankers vs. Ancient Aliens #1 is mindless fun with big guns and big dinosaurs

Posted on by

The Tankers were sent back 65 million years into the past with a simple mission. To use their weaponized mech-suits to divert the asteroid that annihilated the dinosaurs and buy a little more time before extinction – and a lot more future oil reserves. But deep in Earth’s prehistoric past, something far deadlier than dinosaurs lies in wait. A species of star-faring, super-advanced ancient aliens! Battle-hardened by millennia of galaxy-spanning civil war, the ancient aliens have come to Earth armed to the teeth and ready to unleash the most fearsome arsenal unknown to man. Now the Tankers must wage an all-out war against ancient aliens and monstrous super-dinosaurs alike if they hope to fight their way back to a future worth saving!

Hank Howard, Pizza Detective: A Slice of Life #2 delivers the reveal with all the toppings

Posted on by

While Detective Hank Howard was busy getting hot and heavy with an old flame, Big Caligula customer George Horvath’s body grew colder than day-old pizza. Now, South Florida’s favorite regional pizza chain is under fire, assailed by wrongful death accusations from the grieving widow he left behind. But something smells fishy, and it’s not the anchovies. Hank knows Horvath was murdered by someone looking to get their palm greased and he’s out to prove it. Locked in a deadly game of cat and mouse, Hank must brave a den of thieves – The Gasparilla Pirate Festival – to hunt down the killer and bring them to justice. But he better stay frosty because someone’s packing heat and this festival promised fireworks.
