Mercenary Sea looks interesting

At least judging by the cover to the first issue:

(via Comical Musings)
"NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT"
Action and adventure set in 1938—The South Seas. Japan has invaded China. War in Europe is imminent. Ex-bootlegger Jack Harper captains The Venture, a refitted German U-Boat, with a crew of expats, mercenaries and treasure hunters. They do whatever it takes to stay afloat, often running up against pirates, headhunters, spies, and soldiers. They’re always one step away from the greatest score of their lives...or their certain demise.
Did I say interesting? Because I totally meant badass. The other covers look nice too. I really dig the retro-style of the cover and the pulpish plot. I mean, a group of fortune hunters in a German U-boat? Shit yes!

Man, oh man, if only I had a comic book store in town and you know, money.
