I will be launching these alphabet grenades into the world as soon as they are ready. I have listed October as a deadline but chances are they will arrive much sooner than that. If you enjoyed season one, you will love season two. I couldn’t have found a more hardcore bunch of motherfuckers to spill their guts across the blank page.

Everyone who puts in an advanced order will be put into a draw to win a fabulous ERP package that includes 15 Epic Rites Press titles and other goodies from the ERP war chest!

And hey, please “like,” “tweet” and “share” this with your friends and contact list. Put it in your blog, scream it from the rooftops, and spread the word however you can: the punks are back!

Here comes the boom, baby, boom!

Thank you,
Wolfgang Carstens
