Here is a synopsis for Issue #1 found in Diamond's May Previews page 205

In a capitalist world's dark future, Mercenary is no longer just a soldier for hire. It's a way of life. Law is enforced by cyber-powered Mercs and life or death is decided by the lowest bidder. There is no right or wrong beyond the price in hard currency. Jessie Garrett, however, is everything most Mercs are not: honest, selfless and determined to bring order to greed-hardened worlds, driven mad by money. But when a corporate kidnapping goes wrong, Jessie, and fellow Mercs, Panzer and Tsumi, get in over their heads. Strip clubs, black-market organ dealers, cyber-enhanced soldiers and the life of one young girl collide in Contract's first 3-part mini-series, and no one can predict the cost. Ships with 2 covers in a 50/50 ratio.

A First Salvo to New York Comicon!

What a weekend! A First Salvo Partner Garan Madeiros and Danger's Dozen illustrator Norm Breyfogle braved the MASSES at the 2008 New York Comicon and what a convention it was! Hordes decended upon them as copies of Danger's Dozen #1 through 3 and DD:Interlude were handed out alongside CONTRACT #0 with previews of work from the ongoing and a short story by Kevin Sharpe! Illustrated by Ariel Padilla, Contract follows bounty hunter Jessie Garrett and her crew - Panzer and Tsumi as they accept dangerous contracts and bounties. In fact ComiXology http://www.comixology.com/promotions gave away several more of our comics at the NYCC and lucky visitors were sure to find them at their booth, our booth, inker Mark McKenna's booth and several other sources.

There's more to come in 2008, as Contract begins in June and Danger's Dozen continues, following Contract's launch, with a Danger's Dozen promotional issue and the latest three-issue arc - where the action hits and doesn't stop - with a stunning new 64 page issue with guess stars from the indie worlds - Nexus, Badger, Bomb Queen, Doc Thunder, Steelgrip Starky and War Dancer - as Aman crosses worlds battling against the Lemurian General Ariss!

A CONTRACT with The Danger's Dozen!

The Danger's Dozen storm the globe!

From reviews on Broken Frontier to interviews at Newsarama, Jazma and the Pulse, the Danger's Dozen has hit.

Danger's Dozen #2 ships very shortly after the posting of this entry, and much more is to come. Contract is underway and looking great, with some awesome art coming in from the talented Kevin Sharpe and Mark McKenna on inks. Check this image by contributor Dave Ross!

Further work on the mega issue of Danger's Dozen #6 concludes with guest stars NEXUS, BADGER, DOC THUNDER, STEEL GRIP STARKEY and more! That's right, as reality collapses, Aman fights his way across other WORLDS!

That's just fun comics.
