Schlock Mercenary: vol. 11
With their ship just two hull breaches short of "derelict" status, Captain Tagon and is mercenary company must make a stop for repairs... extensive, expensive ones, which means that instead of taking shore leave, they split up for odd jobs and easy money. Money is never easy. Credomar, the Barsoom Circus, and Mall One all promise mayhem for pay, but those nigh-simultaneous dust-ups pale in comparison to the fight that awaits the Toughs once they have a ship under their feet again. Massively Parallel is the eleventh volume of collected Schlock Mercenary strips, and at 256 pages in length it's also the longest. The 13-page bonus story, "Parallel Perspectives" features Howard's writing atop gorgeous art from Brenda Hickey, Keliana Tayler, and Travis Walton.
