The Cape:
"Every little boy dreams about putting on a cape and soaring up, up, and away... but what if one day that dream were to come true? Eric was like every other eight-year-old boy, until a tragic accident changed his life forever. The Cape explores the dark side of power, as the adult Eric–a confused and broken man–takes to the skies... and sets out to exact a terrible vengeance on everyone who ever disappointed him."
The Cape 1969:
"It's 1969 and the war in Vietnam rages on. Captain Chase, a Medevac helicopter pilot for the US Army, is shot down over enemy territory. He and his crew are in a fight for their lives as they play a deadly game of cat and mouse with the Vietcong. But, machine guns and grenades aren't the only frightening things hiding in the jungle. Find out what happens in this origin prequel to the Eisner Award-nominated hit, The Cape."
