Mohawk Media has released a preview of its forthcoming Dick Turpin project.
The Chris Bunting-written and Salvador Velázquez-illustrated pencil-only preview issue is available as an eco comic from the publisher's website.
"It's every writer's dream to write such a famous, or should I say, infamous character as Dick Turpin," said Bunting.
"His multi-layered, unpredictable nature makes for great drama. Expect some startling revelations about the life of this legendary lawbreaker.
"Turpin lived at a time when England was more like the Wild West, and criminals faced the death penalty at the gallows. Highwaymen led a very exciting life but often a very short one.
"This 18th century swashbuckling firebrand was born to be a 21st century complex comic book character. Dick Turpin's return is a case of perfect timing."
The preview issue of Dick Turpin is available now, with more details of the project to be announced soon.
