==Jameson/Jones: Supermassive==

'''Jameson/Jones: Supermassive''' is a forthcoming novel written and illustrated by André Czausov.[[File:Suprmasv_banner.png|thumb|344px]]

The story explores the tension between an ageing Commander Jameson and a hotheaded young gangster/bounty hunter, as they meet under fire and then struggle for supremacy in space, all the while stalked by a galaxy-spanning evil that will require their combined skills to survive. This theme in part represents the gulf between the old game of '''Elite''' and its newer, flashier incarnation -- as a kind of homage to the mighty efforts of Braben & Co to revive it. It also represents a tip of the hat to the potential age range between the oldest and newest players of the revised game.

A number of included story elements will be the product of in-book rewards granted to individual supporters of the original crowdfund at Pozible.

The most complete PDF editions of the book will also include a teaser copy of [[Void magazine]], a parody/community news journal featuring serious and not-so-serious content for players and dreamers of Elite:Dangerous.
