Cool Runnings

Cool Runnings

Cool Runnings

“Ever since way back in the 1990’s when I saw Cool Runnings, I’ve been terrified of downhill super-speed sports. This gives me horrible flashbacks! It rocks so hard, I can barely believe it. I’ve got such a reverence for people who are able to do this sort of sport that I can barely contain my excitement at this clearly professionally designed downhill sports board on four wheels. Zoom!

This is an adjustable skate machine. It’s got chamfered rails, trucks adjustable between 0 and 90 degrees, precision CNC machined parts, all the excellence of a perfect ride you’d only otherwise be able to get with a sack of baseplates, hangars, risers, gear of all sorts. Get yourself a drop deck, a top mount, a drop trough, evo setup, everything you’ve ever wanted.

The trucks are made of aerospace grade aluminum, the axels machined from solid blocks of chromium vanadium steel. The deck has a birch and airex core and is vacuum laminated with carbon fiber and epoxy resin. All of this fine-tuned to your specifications.”

Crossed

crossed

Garth Ennis is re-teaming with his “Chronicles of Wormwood” collaborator Jacen Burrows on Avatar’s “Crossed,” a post apocalyptic survival horror story without a zombie in sight. The series begins with a #0 issue in August, and proceeds to a monthly schedule with October’s issue #1. CBR News spoke to Ennis and Burrows about the series Ennis has called “the most disturbing and fucked up thing” he has ever written.

The seven-issue “Crossed: Family Values,” illustrated by Javier Barreno, wraps up in January, the same month that Lapham’s original graphic novel “Crossed 3D” debuts. Then, in February, the six-issue “Crossed: Psychopath” launches, followed by Lapham’s new non-”Crossed” horror miniseries “Caligula” in March, illustrated by German Nobile. CBR News spoke with Lapham about his slate of horror projects and pushing each set of characters to their limits.
