"Artist, poet, braggart... indeed. And talented. A dangerously good man." Pete Cooper is a largely self trained artist who continually pushes to improve his craft. He works in a variety of formats, illustrating for comics, novels, magazines, and storyboards for television and films. Pete has worked for E-Comics Gazette's "MR. DUSK," And Pro Se Productions's magazines "MASKED GUN MYSTERY," "FANTASY and FEAR," and "PECULIAR ADVENTURES.”

Recently, Pete worked with Tommy Hancock creating the art for his novel YesterYear. Hancock had this to say about Pete, "Pete's work for YesterYear is the best work I've seen him do in the almost ten years I've known him. The book will contain probably 15 illustrations, these four included, spotlighting the Heroes and Villains of YESTERYEAR's first era of Heroes, basicallyfrom 1929-1955. There will be a mixture of styles as well as genres, including comedy, pulp, and straight super hero and Pete adjusts extremely well to the demands put upon an artist to make such transitions. The love he has for his craft comes through in his work, especially in these images."

Pro Se continues its one-two punch launching its second year in print with the debut novel from author Chuck Miller. CREEPING DAWN: THE RISE OF THE BLACK CENTIPEDE centers on the aforementioned Centipede, Miller's pivotal character in a mad, wild world of magic, mystery, murder, and almost more mayhem than it has historical guest stars. His dark origins tied to Lizzie Borden, The Black Centipede is a mysterious individual who has no life other than that of masked avenger, vigilante, and consort of weirdness.
"This," Hancock reported, "is not just a novel. Chuck has breathed every bit of himself into the creation of not simply this book or this character, but the insane universe that the Centipede -inhabits isn't a strong enough world. He is the axis that the lunacy of everyone around him turns on and in response he's a valiant hero at some turns, a madman at others, and even the deus ex machina at times. CREEPING DAWN is an introductory ticket to one of the wildest rides New Pulp has ever seen!
CREEPING DAWN is a fast paced New Pulp mash up of noir, masked vigilantes, historical fiction, and more mystery and suspense than a centipede has legs. With evocative cover art by David L. Russell and interiors by Peter Cooper, CREEPING DAWN: RISE OF THE BLACK CENTIPEDE by Chuck Miller is one experience not to be missed!
