Snake is back! The bitter and cynical anti-hero from the cult classic, John Carpenter’s; Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. stars in this all-new mini-series! Unlike many licensed properties, the creators of the comic adaption of Snake’s adventures worked hand in hand with director John Carpenter and actor Kurt Russell who played Snake Plissken in the movies to keep the stories and character true to the movies.

The Snake Plissken Chronicles series is set in a nightmarish future America where liberty, law and order, and the government have long since crumbled, and starts with Snake on his way to Atlantic City for a major score. If he can navigate his way safely there through ambushes of biker gangs, he’ll then be able to make contact with one of the few people Snake calls friend. Of course, that where the real action starts, as Snake blasts, punches and kicks his way through one bad guy after another, all of whom want to take him down. As usual, things get worse and worse for Snake Plissken, but that’s the way he expects life to be, and he’s ready for it.

Story/Spoilers
In issue #1B, After his little trouble in the Big Apple, and a full presidential pardon, Snake Plissken is ready for some real action. He finds some in Atlantic City, in what can only be described as the ultimate car boost. A car worth 30 million dollars! Chaos is the play of the day, a double cross is always just around the corner, and everyone will soon learn… you never turn your back on a snake.

Next in issue #2B, Will Plissken role snake eyes in Atlantic City? Double-crossed and left for dead, Snake is driven by one sole purpose: revenge! But first he’s got one small obstacle to overcome: he’s locked in a steel cage thrown into the Atlantic Ocean! People say that Snake can escape from anything, and now he’ll prove it…or die trying!

Next in issue #3B, What could be so difficult about stealing JFK’s limo from the top of an 80-story tall casino? Everything! With Mr. Marrs, the casino security and the local cops after Snake, our anti-hero takes a joy ride that’s going to take a few planks out of the Atlantic City boardwalk!

Finally, in issue #4B, With his prize in sight, Plissken must confront all his enemies! But beware, because this cornered Snake is full of venom!
