Illustrators of the Future Contest Winner from 2001 Releases Issue Number Six and the Finale of the Graphic Novel Series Devil's Triangle
Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) October 30, 2013 -- Brian C. Hailes of Salt Lake City Utah, and 2001 winner of the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future contest, announced the release of his graphic novel, "Devil's Triangle."
In the climactic finale of "Devil's Triangle," Gist Miller and what few are left of the original crew scramble aboard a purgatorial prison posing as a cruise ship set adrift. When Master Mahan, the ancient demon hell-bent on upgrading bodies, brings their pursuit to a head, Gist and friends must abandon their futile flight, and stand to face him. But lurking amidst angry phantom and zombie sailors, an even greater threat awaits them on the pitching deep—a threat spanning to biblical times. Caught up in a twister of good versus evil, Gist must find out what it really means to face the devil or lose everything he loves.
E-reader versions of all six issues of "Devil's Triangle" will be released in March 2014. Comixology just picked up the Devil's Triangle series and will soon make them available online.
