From
the back cover
“The
traditional heist story is turned on its head in Coward. Leo can plan
the perfect score, but only if he can be convinced the job is safe, because Leo
is not a shoot-first think-later type of criminal. Leo is a professional, whose
biggest desire in life is not to end up exactly where he belongs: in a prison
cell.”
Review
The characters
and storyline are familiar, solid and pulp-true, perhaps cliché in spots (e.g.,
the ending). The chiaroscuro art suits the sharp, epigrammatic writing. It’s a
fun, fast neo-noir comic book, one worth reading. Followed by the graphic novel
Criminal: Lawless.
