Mauser in the Gutters!

Christopher Mills has a special treat at his Guns in the Gutters blog today. With the full permission of the creators, he is running the entire, little-seen Michael Mauser, Private Eye story, "Blue Ice," from 1982.

The story was one of the first published works of artist Rick Burchett (Batman Adventures, Batman/Huntress, She-Hulk, Gravedigger) and originally appeared in Charlton Bullseye #6. Rick both wrote and drew it, and it has never been reprinted.

I've been a fan of Nick Cuti and Joe Staton's Mike Mauser since the character first saw the light of day as a back-up feature in Charlton's E-Man and Vengence Squad and I never read this story. A great treat for all.

No joy, i'm afraid. Perhaps it's not available anymore but all i get when i click through is a message saying the blog is invitation only and perhaps i should contact the author to request an invite.

It's no big deal, but i'm about to sell my copy of Charlton Bullseye 6 in a space saving effort, and just wanted to see if there was a quick way of getting a digital copy. If needs must i can just do a scan for myself before i sell it.

Just letting you know though that the link doesn't go through for me (but also letting you know it's nice to see other people who are fans of Mike Mauser!) :)
