VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Warren Ellis, art and cover by Ben Templesmith. There are reasons why hostage negotiators get special training. They need to create calm, bond with their targets, and appear credibly understanding and empathetic. In the crumbling city of Snowtown, the closest thing they have to a hostage negotiator is detective Richard Fell, who has a dozen psychology books and a history of shooting people who annoy him. And, in Snowtown, hostage-takers aren't doing it for personal gain. They're only doing it for hate  "A kinder, gentler Fell? With this issue, yeah, maybe. After a long hiatus (even for a Warren Ellis comic), Fell is back to tell a competent, compelling done-in-one hostage drama, thanks to Ellis’ inventive script and Ben Templesmith’s rock-solid execution. A simple story, but told well enough that it’s hard to find anything wrong with it." THIS BOOK GETS 9 GRAHAMS OUT OF 10 VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
