Battletech Graphic Novel
RARE AND OUT OF PRINT COLLECTOR'S ITEM.

BattleTech was originally a role-playing game from FASA. It later appeared as an animated series on television, a virtual-reality video game, a line of toys from Tyco, and now makes its way to the comics.

VINTAGE! Published in 1986 by FASA

This comic of tough men doing a tough job in astoundingly huge robot-like devices was part of a 1980s wave of comics based on role playing games.

"The beginning of a legend...
Here is Natasha Kerensky, the infamous Black Widow, in one of her unit's first and most daring missions... a deadly mission of revenge against Anton Marik, the rebel of the Free Worlds League."

This black and white comic gives the story of the Wolf's Dragoons after House Marik murders Joshua Wolf. As expected from the title, Natasha Kerensky (the Black Widow) must work with her unit to avenge the deaths of the murdered Dragoons. The book also comes with a Battletech RPG scenario at the end...a barroom fight. It is a story that helps to further explain the actions of the Dragoons in the Inner Sphere.
