Dan Fogler, fan favorite actor in The Walking Dead and J.K. Rowling's Fantastic Beasts, lends his writing talent to an original new comic book title, Brooklyn Gladiator, published by Heavy Metal.

It's 2033, New Yorkers survive on scraps in a despoiled America. John Miller is an action hero for the ages, a rough and ready badass who could drink Han Solo, Jack Burton, and John McClane under the table. Brooklyn Gladiator is a tribute to the comics, films, and experiences that have inspired author Dan Fogler.

“BROOKLYN GLADIATOR IS LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN BRAVE NEW WORLD AND ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, WRITTEN BY HUNTER S. THOMPSON AND DIRECTED BY A LATE 80’S PAUL VERHOEVEN. AN AWESOME OMINOUS IN-YOUR-FACE URBAN SCI-FI PARABLE.” – ERNEST CLINE (AUTHOR OF READY PLAYER ONE)

"BROOKLYN GLADIATOR is iron edged, subversive, and packs one hell of a punch!" – JAY BARUCHEL (THIS IS THE END, GOON)

“IF YOU LIKE CRAZY DYSTOPIAN FANTASY MIXED WITH ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS, THIS MAY BE THE BOOK FOR YOU.” -THE BEAT
