Robot Comics has released the second issue of Donna Barr's Award-Winning THE DESER PEACH #2 on the Amazon Kindle.

“As the World War II history buffs among you know, German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel (otherwise known as “Desert Fox“), had a younger brother who, alas, died in infancy. And as the serious comics fans among you know: No, he didn’t. The kid didn’t die, that is—at least, not in Donna Barr’s telling! No, that kid (seen above in adulthood) grew up to be Manfred Rommel, Barr’s fictitious gay brainchild otherwise known as “Desert Peach,” who has been starring in printed comics and books for the last twenty years and, in keeping with the digital revolution, has also established a secure beachhead in the webcomics world of ModernTales.com.”
–Howard Cruse (Creator, STUCK RUBBER BABY, FROM HEADRACK TO CLAUDE)
“Ooooo…Donna Barr…DONNA BARR!! Miss “Look at ME…I’ve written a BILLION ISSUES of DESERT PEACH”!!! Look at ME…I do inventive storylines like GAY NAZIS…MY characters are SOOOOO interesting!!! I’m SOOO good MY books SELL!! Lahdee-freakin’-doodie-DAHH!!! We GET it Barr…YOU ROCK!! Donna Barr…pfffft…”
–Tom Beland (Creator, TRUE STORY SWEAR TO GOD)
THIS ISSUE:
THE ACTION ISSUE! Possibly one of the best fight scenes in comics history - “The Bar Fight” - The Desert Peach and his orderly drop into the local bar for a nice, cool beer, where they discover that prejudice must always be struggled against. The episode features some of the most beautiful fight scenes between two muscular men anywhere in the series, including one of the most fearsome kicks, and some nasty work with a table.
“Love, Honor, Death and Tea” — this sums up the life of The Desert Peach, the Desert Fox’s gay brother. The classic series swings wildly from tragedy to belly-laughs, as World War Two flaunts itself at its weirdest.
THIS IS THE KINDLE 1 & 2 EDITION and made specifically for those devices. If readers would like to see a DX edition, they can let Robot Comics know by emailing them at contact@robotcomics.net
