The Fish Fox Boys were enjoying the easy life in a quiet coastal village. That was before the giant jelly fish came, before Fred was captured by pirates, before Roto fell in love, before Adam ran out on the bill of a mermaid restaurant, before... well, before their next adventure began. Wild inventions and gluttonous appettites save the day again in Part Two of The Fish Fox Boys!

Ulysses follows the errant vampyr Elbridge back in time to 1503 in the search for cosmic justice. The half-demon and twin queen of mirrors, Carmelia, joins him but her powers have been diminished by the Perseune Glass. In order to find the Castellan's Eidolon before Elbridge does, together they must investigate the growing fanaticism of a Christian sect devoted to Lazarus and the dark art of revivification, seeking help from Carmilla's witches and a mysterious woman named Anastasie... as well as partake in some unsavory rituals. Who can Ulysses trust in Medieval France? How can he outwit a vampyr? One thing is for certain: he will experience unfathomable horrors heretofore unseen.

My fellow Americans, In case you were unaware, Washington DC was razed to ground in 1974 and our President summarily executed. There was mania and violence in the streets before we found a solution-a lottery-based electoral system to maintain order. I was the first President of The New States of America, Clyde O'brien- former blues musician, failed writer, current Shakespeare enthusiast. My more recent accomplishments include establishing a prison state and stooging as a Machiavellian figure for the powers that be.30 years later and things are still out of hand. The political parties are factionalized into roughly 100 different teams squaring off against each other like petty gangs. I'll be your guide as we take a voyeuristic journey alongside Riley Owen, a member of The Dissent, who escapes the Inner Circle. We'll also meet Clay, who learns of the Rat King philosophy of the Scum from his nihilistic new friend, Carly. And don't think I forgot about Reeve and Xavier, a couple of unfortunate Frontmen grunts who always seem to get stuck with the worst missions possible. Strap in for a wild ride through an America you've never seen before. And if you want a little advice from a guy who knows what he's talking about? Stay away from the unaligned and the Forgiveness.

Will the Fish Fox Boys ever find what they're looking for? Will their sister Anne ever forgive them for blowing up the neighbor's cow? Will they ever learn not to trust mutant animals? Maybe. The Fish Fox Boys are too busy working on their new invention to care. Now who wants a cold jar of strawberry juice?

Their patrol is interrupted by an odious messenger-- The Forgiveness, a political party / zealous religious cult known for their cruelty, is heading their way, looking for blood and converts. In this bloody neo-western, Red has to prepare his town for the impending massacre. That means he needs to shake hands with shady arms and drug dealers in Dallas, make some home-made napalm, and deal with the ghosts of his past as he bargains with his God for survival.
