FANTASTIX: CODE RED. This was my second published novel, following on the heels of EVIL WAYS, which came out in 2005. Fantastix: Code Red premiered in March of 2006.
By a purely coincidental happenstance,
Bibliorati recently ran an old Pulp Fiction Reviews about Fantastix.
This is only Nash's second book and it is wonderfully executed. He has matured considerably as a writer since that first offering and the control with which he spins this yarn is both deft and entertaining. I really enjoyed reading this book and came to love these characters. If superheroes are your cup of tea, do not pass up FANTASTIX. It has a lot to say. From Ron Fortier's
Bibliorati review of the now out-of-print Fantastix novel, which can be read
here.
A little Fantastix history.

I originally wrote this story as a comic book, which also eventually came out, though after the novel, Sadly, both are out of print and unavailable. I wrote the comic book story for Albino Alligator Studios, who owns the characters. While art was being worked on for the comics, the publisher asked if I would be willing to adapt it into novel form. Being young and hungry for work, I said yes and wrote this novel in 3 months. Yep, I wrote it in 90 days.
Using the comic book script as a guide, I wrote the novel telling the story of these super-powered characters on the run from a mysterious organization called Haven. I also expanded on the comic story. In the comic, the police detective appears in 1 panel, where it is mentioned he is on the case. In the novel, we see him actually working the case. The back story is also fleshed out

considerably.
Sadly, the publisher pulled the print on demand book after a few short weeks due to low sales and Fantastix faded into obscurity. I do not expect it will ever be re-released. I am proud of this novel and wish more readers had been given the chance to find it. It is my honor to present to my Patrons, for the first time in 11 years, this month's free Patreon ebook-- FANTASTIX: CODE RED! Want the chance to check this novel out? Join us at
