The brainchild of acclaimed writer William Harms, and 2010 Pilot Season winner, 39 Minutes explores a violent alternative to pulling off the ultimate heist: just kill off all of the witnesses. Drawn by the talented up-and-comer Jerry Lando, this unique take on the classic bank robbery genre follows John Clayton, a disgraced ex-Marine in the employ of the FBI. Clayton's former unit, now embittered and jaded toward the country they once served, begin a brutal crime spree across the middle United States, shredding anyone who crosses their path. With a window of only 39 minutes to successfully rob a bank, anyone – cops, civilians, even John Clayton – becomes a target.
