The Red Ray

By Thomas Read

Once upon a time...most fairy tales start that way. Not sure why, but they do.

So once upon a time I was going to publish a comic. A nice little hundred issue series that took a second generation super hero from start to finish. Multiple heroes and villains; a truly complete universe. There would be spin offs, and toys, and maybe a movie deal. Sounds like fun.
But then life gets in the way. You grow up and dreams fad similar to washing your face in the shower. One minute it is the most important, another, not so much.

But it is always there, nagging in your sub-conscience. It itches every so often and sometimes it needs to be scratched.
So sometimes I would take out the old scripts and work on it. Sometimes it would work, sometimes not. But in the end no one ever saw it.
Until now.

The final scratch. The complete spin off of The Red Ray. The background, the set up, the write up and the nine page solo start to The Red Ray series.

So The Red Ray is finally out there. Abate it is in the form of an e-book but out there never the less.
One last itch to scratch.
