The second arc in BRUBAKER & PHILLIPS' runaway bestseller keeps the hits coming, as Dylan realizes how close he may be to being caught by the NYPD. Also, remember that every issue features all the backpage extras that BRUBAKER & PHILLIPS fans have come to expect.
Sean Phillips and Elizabeth Breitweiser do such a good job to make a modern story feel classic. Like the rest of this series, the all-star pair give this issue the pulp noir treatment, but with a bigger color palette. They have both worked with Brubaker on his other books, and it shows. They are a fantastic team that only continue to get better. Read Full Review
Speaking of Sharpe (again), she acts as the perfect antidote for anyone who may have started to grow weary of Dylan's sympathetic and occasionally self-pitying narration. I personally still love it, but I also must admit that it's great having someone thrust into the narrative who possesses such a concrete view of what's right and wrong. It adds yet another fascinating layer to what has quickly establishing itself as an early front-runner for my favorite comic series of 2017. Read Full Review
The art continues to shine and plays like watching a gritty crime show on HBO. This trio is an unstoppable team when working together.Bits and Pieces: Another great installment to this series. The story continues to move along showing Dylan's situation can just get worse from here. You can only hope the best outcome for him in the end. Although it's getting tougher to root for our main character at times. Read Full Review
While wordy, Brubaker's narration does an excellent job of breaking down the stakes of each player involved, even as he moves others around the periphery of our leads. It's a focused approach that absolutely thrives due to Sean Phillips' rich character work. Read Full Review
I'm excited to see where Brubaker takes this series in the coming issues. I know it's going to be good, but then again it's always good with this creative team. I just wish he'd maybe cool it a little bit with the heavy narration. Read Full Review
Favorite current ongoing series next to Moon Knight
This issue is mostly set up even if it's still very enjoyable and masterfully executed. The art is great as always, but I found some facial expressions a bit odd.
