About the Book

SOME REBELLIONS NEVER DIE! Traitor. Rogue. Revenant. Rebel. He’s been known by many names . . . and now modern masters Michael E. Uslan (the blockbuster executive producer behind the multibillion dollar–grossing BATMAN feature film franchise—from Tim Burton’s BATMAN to Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT and beyond) and Steven S. DeKnight (showrunner of Netflix’s DAREDEVIL and Starz’s SPARTACUS: BLOOD AND SAND) join riveting artist Sebastián Cabrol (EC’s CATACOMB OF TORMENT) to chronicle the fiery origin of the once-forgotten revolutionary who first watered liberty’s tree with the blood of tyrants! Once, the Reverend Doctor Christopher Syn waged a guerrilla insurgency across 18th-century England—justice for the cruel deaths of his family at the hands of King George III and the rest of England’s persecuted and oppressed. Hidden behind a terrifying mask to keep his true identity concealed, Syn’s rebellion soon became legend, inspiring copycat uprisings across the English countryside as the “Scarecrow of Romney Marsh” became a beacon of resistance against his nation’s mad monarch. But that’s where history’s chronicle of the Scarecrow’s reign is about to go violently, terribly wrong . . . Now Dr. Syn has been captured, tried, and condemned for his crimes. Forced into death by exile in the British Empire’s most inhospitable outpost—the American penal colony known as “Georgia”—Syn has found himself imprisoned alongside a hardscrabble crew of his king’s most notorious “undesirables.” With a mismatched team of allies fueled by the same burning vengeance for justice at his side, can England’s most dangerous revolutionary finally bring the empire down in an inferno of roaring flames . . . and could this backwater collection of pestilence-ridden colonies called America provide the spark? The year is 1775. And Dr. Syn’s war is about to begin. INGLORIOUS BASTARDS meets V FOR VENDETTA in a shocking twist of alternative history, as Uslan, DeKnight, and Cabrol resurrect an unrelenting freedom fighter for a new age!

About the Authors

Michael E. Uslan is the Originator and Executive Producer of the Batman movie franchise from 1989’s revolutionary Batman, through The Dark Knight Trilogy, to the upcoming JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX and THE BATMAN, PART 2. From his start teaching the world’s first ever accredited college course on comic books and writing Batman comics while still a student, to his memoir, The Boy Who Loved Batman, now being produced as a Broadway play by The Nederlander Organization, Uslan presents his acclaimed TED Talk at comic cons, universities and business conferences around the world, thrilling the fans who embrace him as one of their own who rose up to spend his life restoring the darkness and dignity to their mutually beloved Batman. An Emmy Award winner whose films have garnered Oscars and other international awards, and Chairman of The New Jersey Film Commission, Uslan’s commencement address at Indiana University has been hailed as one of the ten best of all time by USA Today and by NOR as one of the 350 best commencement speeches in the United States since 1774.
