ABERRANT VOLUME 1

David, a U.S. Army Special Operations Commander, distraught after losing his entire unit to a superhuman attack, wages an absolutely brutal one-man war on the eccentric billionaire and former superhero, Lance Cordrey, whom he believes is ultimately responsible. That is until Nelson Little, the head of a clandestine paramilitary outfit called Article 13, presents David with evidence that Cordrey may be a patsy, and David’s men were killed as part of a vast and twisted government/military conspiracy. Armed with this new information, David must dismantle the machine of said conspiracy piece by human piece while coming to terms with his own mysteriously emerging superpowers and wrestling with sincere doubts about Little’s trustworthiness.

Banjax #1: A wholly Original and Crackingly Twisted Deconstruction of the Superhero Genre

Posted on April 5, 2019 by Graphic Policy Team

Coming to you this June from Action Lab: Danger Zone is Banjax, a dark and decidedly wicked superhero noir that pulls no punches, that suffers no fools, that repeatedly gets knocked down, but always gets back up again with a smile. It’s an utterly treacherous comic dance that has already been banned in three States AND Puerto Rico.

Disgraced former superhero, Laird Mason, is diagnosed with terminal cancer brought on by years of using his powers. Defending what he has deemed an ungrateful and ultimately unworthy city is literally killing him. With just months to live and a legacy hanging in the balance, Mason launches a violent and misguided Death Wish-like campaign to purge the city of scumbags before he dies.

When things get really ugly, Mason’s measured and deliberate former sidekick, Abel Raines – the public’s current point-and-wink superhero ideal – is tasked with bringing his old mentor in. The issue? Raines isn’t remotely up to the task.

Creator Rylend Grant describes Banjax as a dripping-with-character Paul Thomas Anderson-like addiction play, folded into a Tony Gilroy-penned action thriller, directed by Michael Mann… Now, tell us that doesn’t sound intriguing.

Written by Grant, Banjax features art by Fábio Alves, color by Edson Ferreira, lettering by HdE, and a cover by Alves and Ferreira

ABERRANT #5

CHAPTER 5: GOD D*** IT. A silver-tongued Nelson Little must talk a checked out David into saving the man he still thinks may be responsible for the death of his men.

Aberrant Season 2 Kicks Off in February

Posted on January 6, 2019 by Graphic Policy Team

Rylend Grant has been busy. Not only has he been cranking out new movie screenplays, but he’s also put together a five-issue sequel to Aberrant. The comic is being developed for television by executive producer Tom Krantz.

Written by Grant the first issue of season two features art by Davi Leon Dias, color by Iwan Joko Triyono, and lettering by HdE. The covers are provided by Dias and Triyono.

Season 1 followed David Colbrenner, a U.S. Army Special Operations Commander whom, after losing his entire unit in a superhuman attack, waged a brutal one-man war on the eccentric billionaire and former superhero – Lance Cordrey – he believed to be responsible.

Season 2 starts with the realization that Cordrey was a patsy, and David’s men were actually killed as part of a vast government/military conspiracy. The nasty second season twist? If David is going to peel back the layers of said conspiracy, he’s going need Cordrey’s help.

Well-known for quirky variants – Season 1 covers included a hilarious parody of a classic Billy Dee Williams Colt 45 advertisement and not one, but two ALF-inspired fits – Grant promised not to disappoint with his season 2 covers. Season 2 brings a Top Gun/Playing with the Boys volleyball variant, a Karate Kid Part II:Live or Die? variant, and a Point Break meatball sandwich variant.

Preorder Aberrant – Season 2 #1 with the Diamond item code DEC181412. Preorder the special “Urinal” variant edition with Diamond item code DEC181413. Look for both in comic book stores February 2019 and PUT ABERRANT ON YOUR PULL LIST!
