THE BLAINE GROUP IS HONORED TO LAUNCH PUBLIC RELATIONS ACTIVITIES SUPPORTING PEARL HARBOR AND THE DAY OF INFAMY

Monroe Publications' World War II Comix Imprint
Commemorates the 75th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day

Beverly Hills, CA... Pearl Harbor and the Day of Infamy, a 24-page comic book, distributed under Monroe Publication's World War II Comix imprint, is being published as part of the 75th Anniversary commemoration of the attack which occurred on December 7, 1941.

"The Blaine Group is honored to provide national public relations support for this edutainment product created by noted war historian Jay Wertz who combined his rich background in film and television with his love of history to both pay homage to and educate about this pivotal day," noted Devon Blaine, president and CEO of The Blaine Group.

This short graphic history of the shocking events of Pearl Harbor Day details the true events of what President Franklin D. Roosevelt called "a date which will live in infamy" in his message to the U. S. Congress to ask for a declaration of war in response to Japan's surprise attack on America's principal military stronghold in the Pacific.

"We believe this novel form of presenting actual events in American history will capture the interest of new readers, particularly young people," suggests author Jay Wertz, who has written multiple books about World War II. "The impact of the sacrifices made by brave Americans at Pearl Harbor and elsewhere is too important to become lost or misunderstood. In some small way, we hope this comic will help preserve that history."

Starting with the background of Japan's rise to military prominence and the Asian country's aggressive behavior toward its neighbors, the work, illustrated by comic book artist Ed Jiménez, covers all the significant events leading up to that fateful aerial attack. Japan's simultaneous surprise attacks in the Philippines and elsewhere in Asia and the Pacific are included, as is America's reaction to the bombing of Hawaii.

Pearl Harbor and the Day of Infamy also includes the introduction to a serialized adventure graphic novel set during the War in the Pacific entitled Separated by War, illustrated by noted European military artist Jim Grivalds. The serialization will continue in future issues of World War II Comix' accounts of other World War battles including Bataan and Corregidor, The Battle of Midway, Saipan and Iwo Jima.

Pearl Harbor and the Day of Infamy is available as a full-color traditional comic book, $4.95, and in digital form for I-Books, Kindle and other digital formats, $3.95 to $3.99. It can be ordered through the WorldWarIIComix.com (http://www.worldwariicomix.com/) website, I-Tunes, Amazon and select retailers.
