DYNAMIC
FORCES HOISTS THE AMERICAN FLAGG!
New Lithograph and Giclee Celebrate 20th Anniversary of
Landmark Series.
September 24, 2003,
Runnemede, NJ – Marking the 20th Anniversary of the
creation and publication of American Flagg! by creator, writer,
and artist Howard Chaykin, Dynamic Forces has announced the
creation of a new commemorative Lithograph and a new commemorative
Giclee honoring the series!
“I am so
pleased to be working with Howard on this America Flagg! 20th
Anniversary celebration,” said Nick Barrucci, President
of Dynamic Forces. “Howard’s always been a visionary,
and this work remains in such high-esteem, and high-demand,
that we wanted to get the fans something to help celebrate.”
Chaykin added:
“Twenty years ago I did a comic book about a twenty-first
century America with endless reality shows based on public
humiliation; a federal government secretly selling off pieces
of the United States; and a citizenry so drugged out on media
they colluded in their own betrayal. Don’t say I didn’t
warn you.”
In the world of
Flagg!, earth has survived nuclear combat, the black plague,
food riots, a banking-system meltdown, and more. In what had
been the United States the year 2031, things are worse than
ever: gang wars, political rivalries settled by shooting matches,
the populace drugged by both media overload and exotic drugs,
economic depression, and much, much more.
The U.S. government,
along with the executive boards of most major corporations,
had moved to Mars decades before, and on Mars, the Government
couldn't care less.
Reuben Flagg, an
out-of-work actor raised on Mars, transforms his screen personality
into real life as he takes over the job of representing the
government and enforcing the law in 21st-century Chicago.
This is American Flagg!.
Originally published
in 1983 by First Comics, and running through the early 1990’s,
Chaykin’s Flagg helped set the tone for more mature
comics work, and remains a vital part of comics’ history.
“With these
initial product launches, we’re hoping to place American
Flagg! right back into today’s market,” concluded
Barrucci. “From there, we’ll have to see what
2004 holds for American Flagg.”
