It's the big finale of CRIMINAL's most ground-breaking storyline yet! Riley Richards has committed crime after crime to get what he wants... Now what will he have to do to keep all the things he's killed for? It's a twisted look at crime, comics, nostalgia, and obsession... all in the award-winning CRIMINAL style. And remember, every issue of CRIMINAL has articles and illustrations that are only available in the single printed single issues, making it the best bargain on the shelves!
And that's what Last of the Innocent has been: the most unique and new Criminal story yet, filtered through one of comics' own longest running forms paired with a distillation of one of its most long standing criticisms. This story has been Criminal on overdrive, a story so perversely simple and yet so stunningly ambitious at once that it serves as the ideal representation of what Criminal has always been.

"Last of the Innocent" will certainly be ranked as one of the best comics of 2011. The layers of history and love and opportunity build together to make a tale where you are invested completely. In some places, invested more than you actually want to be. The switch up ending is amazing and offers so much more to think about. The concepts of moral responsibility against personal desire are battles people face every day. Riley Richards runs through the gauntlet and in doing so shows us all the dangers of believing our own abilities and wishes. If you do something bad, do you become a bad person? Yes, but there are always degrees. Read Full Review

You should already know:Go pick this one up today. Read Full Review
Criminal: The Last of the Innocent's conclusion leaves you with more questions than answers. Some might hate that, but as I explained before, it makes you mull over this story in your mind far after you've read the final page. There is no definitive good guy or bad guy, just the gray in between. And that's where the Criminal series has always excelled. Read Full Review
