From the powerhouse team of Joe Hill (Locke & Key) and Martin Simmonds (Punks Not Dead) comes the second chapter in the inaugural Syd "Sh*t-Talk" Homes mystery!
Comedy may be hard and dying may be easy, but getting yourself off the hook for murder? For Syd Homes, that's looking damn near impossible.

Dying Is Easy #2 a fast-paced issue that never loses focus on where it's headed. It's a must-read. Read Full Review
