| Publisher Description: As a product of Buffalo, New York's dangerous East Side, Alan Perez was always extremely tough. He didn't become the top student of the enigmatic martial arts instructor known only as Master Kai for no good reason. Unlike many others, Alan embraced the gritty ghettos that he called home for all his young life, as they were the only environment he had ever known. Most of his high school peers gave him respect. The girls felt even more for him than that. Life seemed as good as a young man living in such an urban jungle could ever hope for.But when the deadly street gang known as the New York Boys began taking over the city's East Side, not even Alan could live with that. After his father and several other residents in his neighborhood became victims of the gang, Alan decided that enough was enough. He also decided something else: he could control Buffalo's East Side more efficiently than the fearsome leader of the New York Boys. Donning a specialized costume, Alan pooled his amazing martial arts skills to become the darkly dressed vigilante called Moonstalker. He would take on the seemingly insane task of waging a one-man war on the New York Boys and the other criminals plaguing the city's East Side. He would fight his way towards a final, incredibly bloody confrontation with the gang's extremely deadly leader, the one person in the city who may be Moonstalker's equal... or his superior. Along the way, he would learn the cost of taking on the mission of a costumed vigilante acting outside the law. His urban exploits would inspire many other citizens to take the law into their own hands. The mission would exact a heavy toll on his psyche, further swelling his already immense ego. It would pit him against the local police, including a young officer who made it his obsession to take the young vigilante down along with the New York Boys. Ultimately, it would culminate in his high school becoming the target of a massive assault by the deadly street gang -- with Moonstalker and the leader of the New York Boys engaging in a final brutal battle to determine once and for all who would be the undisputed alpha of the East Side streets. No matter who wins, neither will emerge unscathed, and Buffalo will never be the same again.Moonstalker's saga will take many dark and twisted turns, and it all begins here. |
