Sgt Mike Battle - Unpublished Material

Unpublished Material

Prior to the release of SMB:GAH #7, Pearce was planning to release a free six-page mini-comic that would have led right into the BATTLEBLOOD storyline. #61⁄2 would have shown a retired Mike Battle on a shopping with Shapely Charms, who then leaps into action to apprehend a shoplifter. The story has been written, sketched and lettered, but the final artwork was never completed.

Pearce has also written, sketched and lettered two versions of Sgt. Mike Battle: Nazi Stomper #291, which covers the BEF's Evacuation of Dunkirk. As yet he hasn't mentioned any plans to print this storyline either.

Famous quotes containing the words unpublished and/or material:

    “The true colour of life is the colour of the body, the colour of the covered red, the implicit and not explicit red of the living heart and the pulses. It is the modest colour of the unpublished blood.”
    —Alice Meynell (1847–1922)

    “What persuades men and women to mistake each other from time to time for gods or vermin is ideology. One can understand well enough how human beings may struggle and murder for good material reasons—reasons connected, for instance, with their physical survival. It is much harder to grasp how they may come to do so in the name of something as apparently abstract as ideas. Yet ideas are what men and women live by, and will occasionally die for.”
    —Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)
