TRACE ADKINS FIRST COMIC BOOK "LUKE MCBAIN"
HITS STORES WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11
Nashville, TN (October 26, 2009) -- In addition to being a platinum-selling country artist, TRACE ADKINS has been a reality TV star, a best-selling author, and an actor. Now, he's becoming a comic book action hero. On Wednesday, November 11, 12 Gauge Comics will release LUKE McBAIN #1, the first in an original four-part comic book series. Subsequent issues will be hitting comic book stores monthly through February 2010.
The title character, Luke McBain was inspired by Adkins' likeness and persona and developed after popular comic book writer David Tischman ("Red Herring," "Greatest Hits") and 12 Gauge publisher, Keven Gardner spent time with Adkins to make the role more authentic. Each issue is full of down home Southern charm, and jam-packed with hard-hitting action that has already drawn comparisons to "Walking Tall" and "Billy Jack."

Louisiana hometown after 14 years in prison, having taken the fall for a crime he didn't commit. But not everyone's happy to have him back; especially his younger brother, Paul, who runs the family business - a Mill that employs most of the town. Paul's up to no good, and only McBain has the guts to stop him. It's brother against brother, for the soul of the community.
