Love action movies? Love comics? Well, then UNCAGED is the comic for you! Think Die Hard in a Zoo mixed with pure awesomeness.


Benjamin Bailey and Taylor Stauft love action movies. They both have a deep love for Die Hard, Under Siege, Commando and the such. They also love comic books. Benjamin even co-writes a comic book called Captain Ultimate over at Monkeybrain Comics.


This leads us to UNCAGED, a one shot - roughly 40 pages - comic book that could probably best be described as Die Hard in a zoo. We love campy, over-the-top action movies, so why not make our own in comic book form? UNCAGED is a tribute to everything that embodies the action movies of the 80s and 90s. It's a tribute to a genre we adore.


Here's a little taste of the tone of the series. We created a trailer, of sorts, for UNCAGED with some help from our friend Chelsea Meachem. Keep in mind, this isn't the final look of UNCAGED, but rather a proof of concept. Dim the lights, cue some music:
