The Rocketeer storms the City by the Bay!
With Betty about to start work on a new film, Cliff and Peevy join the aspiring starlet on a trip to San Francisco, where they liaise with fellow pilot and friend (and government operative) Debbie Seville. As always, trouble seems to follow Cliff, who gets caught up in a cable car accident! But at least it'll be all smooth sailing after that, right? Not if the Rocketeer's luck stays true to form!
The first issue in a four-issue miniseries written by fan-favorite writer Stephen Mooney (Rocketeer: The Great Race, Half Past Danger) and drawn by Staz Johnson (Robin, Catwoman)!

    There's not a lot going on here that you haven't already seen in one of his other Rocketeer comics, which is unfortunate as so many others have felt fresh and inventive. Read Full Review

    My only critque is that was able to get the jacket, the helmet, and the rocket on before the speed rail car traveled half a block. The fight scene in the beginning is good. The Thanksgiving dinner went on a little long, but the chemistry between the characters works well assisted by the dialogue. I was disppointed when I saw the cover image for issue 2. We just saw Nazi's with rocket packs in the last run. Let's do something new.
