Oh my lawrdy!

Easily, that’s how. I’ll try to keep this short, not for your sakes mind you, but my own sake. I’m a very busy man who doesn’t have time to dance for you like a monkey. Or, well, no, that ain’t right. I’m a very busy man who doesn’t have very much time to dance for you like a monkey. Now, say it with me, “Dance money dance!”
Did you geezers read Incognito? Ed Brubaker, Sean Phillips, yeah yeah! Let me start by saying I may have a bit of a bias. I love Criminal and I also love some of Bru’s earlier work, specifically A Complete Lowlife. Then there’s that one book, you know the one, with the guys and the stuff, DC published it. Oh, yeah, Sleeper. I read Sleeper a bit late, after it was collected into trade, and I was a bit pissed off that I didn’t get on the wagon sooner. The end of the Vol. 1, fucking amazing. So yeah, I have a bias for Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, but it’s a good bias, the kind of bias everyone should have.
(I didn’t immediately find an image of Incognito’s cover [fuck you google images] so I went with this image of Ed and some random dude instead)
So was Incognito any good? Yeah, it was good. Go out, get the first issue, and cuddle with it in your bed. You’re not going to find better super-hero crime fiction anywhere.
Now, if you’ll just excuse me, I’m gonna go do something else.
UPDATE
Look! A preview!
