by Billy Tucci, Richard W. DeMot, ,& Robert Burden To the terrified Japanese, it was the "Whistling Death." By the end of the war, the F4U Corsair had established an astonishing 11:1 "kill" ratio... an incredible combat record that remains unchallenged to this day. But on the day the Second World War ended, one of these unfortunate warriors found its way to the sleepy Arkansas town of Hockey Jock... and into Some Trouble of a SeRRious Nature! Some Trouble is Billy's directorial debut and is written with its original author Lt. Cmdr. Richard W. DeMott. Cmdr. DeMott logged over 800 hours in the cockpit of the F4U during World War II, shot down four Japanese planes and earned the heralded Navy Cross for leading a Corsair squadron in the dive-bombing and sinking of the Japanese battleship Haruna. The live-action comedy will be filmed this summer on Long Island and will use an authentic WWII veteran F4U Corsair, a full-scale static replica, and painstakingly detailed digital model. The full-color comic will be a hybrid of Billy's detailed sequential art with the film's actual digital Corsair created by Inky Dinky Animation (CGI Shi, The Undaunted). This hysterical piece of aviation history will also showcase a copy of the Lt. Cmdr's original letter, behind-the-scenes photos, script notes, and lots more! FC, 32pg Cover price $3.50.
