Description
In 1976, the Human Fly became the sensation of talk shows and news reports, literally risking life and limb in the most dangerous of acts while wearing a mask and costume to conceal his identity. The man who promised to "out-Evel Knievel" Evel Knievel! He was so popular at that time that Marvel actually made him part of their comics universe for a year and a half!
And now, the anonymous adventurer has re-emerged in a drama ripped from today's headlines as the Fly confronts startling new adversaries: drug cartels, suspicious federal agents from three nations, and a men's-rights terrorist group led by the charismatic, media-savvy Fire Sword.
Featuring glorious, insane stunts at real-life locations in Canada, the USA, and Mexico! The Human Fly is back in a high-octane series containing everything fans loved about him in the sizzling '70s, but with intriguing new mysteries.
Is today's Fly the same man who nearly died in a Montreal Olympic Stadium crash of 1977? Who is his new apprentice, Mercury, and is she secretly out to betray him? How long is the Fly's legacy—decades or centuries? The Human Fly swings into peril for the sake of worthy charities again, but he remains the most amazing superhero of all because he's real!

Peter J. Lawson illustrated promo art for The Southern Squadron, covers for Air Hawk and Bronwyn, and finally The Human Fly. As someone who loved the original run of the Fly back in the '70s, Peter was thrilled to get the call to be a part of this. IPI Comics has a much longer Human Fly arc in mind for Peter!
