The job is a comic from Legacy Comix and is written by Patrick Hickey Jr, and the pencils,inks and colors were done by Steve Cange.
I was actually sent a copy of this (and another surprise coming up a little later that I can’t discuss) by Patrick Hickey Jr himself. Legacy Comix isn’t a company I was or even am familiar with, so I was excited to work with them and I am grateful they sent me The Job. Even more exciting for me was discovering the story is about a professional wrestler that is also a bank robber. Many of you long time fans of Savior Gaming may be aware that I actually am a former Professional Wrestler myself.
Delicious Dan Dero is a professional wrestler,and his wife Beverly Dero acts as both his manager in the ring,and getaway driver and partner in crime when it’s time to rob banks. Dan however uses the bank robbing to pay for his addiction to professional wrestling. (Most of us used jobs at warehouses or working security in bars but hey he beat the system)
On this particular night,Dan is working the champ Ramirez. What is supposed to be an 8 minute squash match for Dan to sell and make Ramirez look good turns into Ramirez being too drunk to really perform and Dan having to do most of the work and make Ramirez look good.
A small injury and a pissed off promo later because Ramirez is too drunk to stand and Dan suddenly seems to have taken his career from 0 to hero.
Meanwhile on the bank robbery front,it turns out Dan’s true talent is working with his wife Bev and robbing banks. The police are stumped as to how this bank was robbed in 45 seconds or so with every camera being out of service. But like Dan’s idol the heart break kid,he has one hell of a super kick.
This is my first experience with Legacy Comix, and I have to say the artwork was nice and the story was fantastic. I will admit that as a former worker and life long wrestling fan this was basically made for me to enjoy, but I know plenty of people like me would love this one as well. Check it out at the link below,and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
