BONUS REVIEW by SHANNA BERRY

If you’ve been looking for a dark, wicked noir book to jump on you’ve found it. The first issue sucks you into this grimy world where our man, Johnny “Choker” Jackson, has a chance to return to the respectful life of a police officer, if he can track down the criminal he once put behind bars, who has now escaped and eluded the rest of the force. Temporarily back on the force, we meet his new partner, a cast-iron chick who has her ex-husbands jewels dangling from the rear-view…awesome. Every panel gives you another angle and dozens more questions. What is so darn scary about the brute we’re tracking? And what’s the story behind Jackson’s alien arm? The story’s just warming up! An added bonus: A Templesmith book that’s on time!
I give it 9 out of 10 Grahams
