Ventura, CA (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) April 28, 2005 -- Hydraulic Leg Inc, announced today the launching
of its highly anticipated comic book series "Hydraulic Leg." This is a new
family-friendly comic book recently introduced at the Comic-Con International
show in San Diego. The main character Hydraulic Leg, is a 14-year-old boy who is
born with a high-tech, prosthetic right leg which enables him to battle the dark
overlords within his community.
"Hydraulic Leg is a fresh twist of a
super hero," said Greg Furie of Hydraulic Leg Inc., which specializes in
creating family-friendly entertainment. "He is a teen super hero that the
average person can relate to, as he is also dealing with the normal issues of
life."
Since its formal release in July, Hydraulic Leg has garnered
considerable attention from a number of industries Furie explained. "We have
several production companies interested in our hero, and have a complete line of
merchandise including toys and video games set to debut in the summer of '06,"
he said. "We have several issues complete and available for online and offline
purchase, and are currently producing the highly anticipated television
series."
Hydraulic Leg was created by co-writers Greg Furie and Michael
Cassidy, animator Dan Schoening and illustrator Ken Faulks. Hydraulic Leg Inc.
is owned by Greg Furie and David Stewart. The comic book reveals the ordinary
and super-hero side of Jonas Paxton (Hydraulic Leg). Jonas is a friendly
red-haired teenager with a passion for roller derby and performing acts of
kindness. His modesty and anonymous exploits make him the ideal Good Samaritan.
Unlike other teenagers, Jonas was born with a hydraulic leg that looks
like an exhaust pipe, but is actually a high-powered device that gives him
amazing powers. His leg enables him to fly, magnetize objects, fire a laser that
can penetrate six feet of steel and shoot a stream of soda pop into the eyes of
villains.
With the support of Madge (Jonas' mother) and Hydro (Jonas'
dog), Jonas faces his most challenging adversary: Evila, a virtual praying
mantis and physician who is secretly plotting to turn everyone on the planet
into a human-animal hybrid. The adventure that is set to unfold, promises to
give readers a captivating saga of good against evil.
Hydraulic Leg is available at www.hydraulicleg.com for $4.00 for a first edition and $10 for
a limited edition (signed and numbered first edition).
