Matt Fraction Could by My New Hero

Posted by mistergroonk in Books, Comics, Tesla on August 29, 2005


“The Five Fists of Science is the story of Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla teaming up to bring about world peace by compulsion– and how that peace will interfere with the plans of an evil science cabal led by Thomas Edison,” says writer Matt Fraction. “An all-out war between magic and science is fought on the streets of New York City in 1899, and it is an absolutely true story, up to a point.”
