Penny-Farthing Press : Books : Decoy

Before Officer Bobby Luck was shot in the line of duty, he was an annoying, idealistic rookie. But now, after his near-death experience and a symbiotic merging with a green shape-shifting alien, Luck is an annoying, unstoppable crime-fighting machine.

Penny-Farthing Press presents three stand alone Decoy short stories that give Decoy fans a fix between mini-series. Follow Decoy and Officer Bobby Luck as they go up against mad scientist Alloy, sarcastic assassin Methane, and one big, and very angry bear.

While Decoy explores his new planet with the wise-cracking Officer Luck as a play-by-play commentator, Dr. Alloy sets his sinister plans into motion. With Nabob out of commission, the evil scientist is free to use his robotic creations to steal mysterious alien blueprints that could advance human technology—or just his own—by more than fifty years.

He’s lean, he’s green, he’s one mean symbiotic fighting machine! That’s right, folks—Decoy’s back to fight the homicidal tendencies of the masked man himself (no, not Zorro); we’re talking about the assassin we all love to hate—the infamous Methane. What’s a hired gun to do when he’s in high demand? Well, to put it bluntly, he does what he knows best: murder. But this time, Decoy, Luck, and Tessa have a little bit of help in stopping Methane’s madness. Complete with a vivid David Finch cover, this one-shot will hit right between the eyes.

$5.00

Double the action, double the comedy, double the…uh…green. In a bundled set of the Decoy One-Shots, get both “Alloy’s Toys” and “Methane’s Games” at a special price. Both books follow the lives of Officer Bobby Luck and his green symbiotic roomie, Decoy. Join this unlikely pair as they fight the evil in Dolphin City and crack some really good jokes at each other’s expense.

$2.95

Some people go a lifetime without poking big ol’ hairy Death with a stick just to see what’ll happen. But shapeshifting alien Decoy and his best buddy, Bobby Luck, find themselves in mortal peril every other day. Why should an afternoon birdwatching excursion be any different? Join Decoy and Luck as an innocent walk in the woods turns into an overnight stand-off with a four-hundred-pound bear and an unresolved past. Originally created as an exclusive issue for Comic-Con International 2003, Stranded features Decoy’s origin story as never seen before, with the dual penciling talents of Decoy creator Courtney Huddleston and PARA artist Pablo Villalobos.
