This anthology of six stories puts the spotlight on some of the minor and background characters from the recent “Star Wars The Force Awakens” film. Landry is also the co-creator (with artist Eric Jones) of the Image Comics hit “The Danger Club”. Landry has also written a number of alternative comics published by Slave Labor Graphics (SLG) including Little Gloomy & The Super Scary Monster Show (which was picked up for a 52 episode animated series titled SCARY LARRY, airing in France), Tron: The Ghost In The Machine and X-Ray Comics. He was a regular contributor to Disney Adventures Magazine with his Kid Gravity comic and also wrote the novel “Frozen: The Phantoms of Arendelle”. He is known for his 2009 mini-series Supergirl: Cosmic Adventures in the 8th Grade, and has written for the Batman: The Brave and the Bold comic series, DC’s Red Lanterns, Casper’s Scare School, The Joker’s Asylum: Mad Hatter , Dean Koontz House of Odd GN, Eerie, Marvel Super Hero Magazine, Dr. Who: Seeds of Destruction Web Comic, Filthy Habits, Dan Brereton’s The Nocturnals, The Incredibles comic series, and on the current Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics, magazines and New Animated Adventures. Walker is also a contributing writer for the gaming website Elder-Geek. His book “Danger Club” is Lord of the Flies with superpowered kids: The greatest do-gooders fly off to space to take down an antagonistic force but they don’t come back, leaving the youngsters to take care of the planet — or destroy it. You take a culture of teenagers, separate them from their adult counterparts, and watch them struggle to re-create the societal structure they were raised in — a culture of violence without any of the temperament that comes with age.
