The Robin Hood of modern crime returns!

In “The Sizzling Saboteur” – The Saint travels to Texas in pursuit of a man who has been sabotaging weapons factories, but when his quarry turns up burned to crisp, he has to contend with both the local police, a trio of mysterious men behind the sabotage, and a beautiful Russian.
The adventures of Simon templar have been documented in The Saint books by Leslie Charteris,The Saint movies and films, old-time radio shows, comic strips, and The Saint and The Return of The Saint television series.Labels: 2012, Comics, Leslie Charteris, Moonstone

I have pre-ordered it with my comicsdealer and took out a subscription. If all saintfans would do the same we stand a chance that it will be around for some time.
I find very interesting. I seen comic shorts of the Saint in The Saint DVD extras. I wouldn't mind this copy but I should contact my local comic shop retailer.
It seems that the release has been slightly postphoned?
The Saint #0 has been released on the 12th of September, no further news is currently available on the next issue so far?
