I wouldn’t say skip the book (it’s entertaining), but go in knowing it’s not as amazing as some of the later stories. 1: COWARD BRUBAKER, ED AND PHILLIPS, SEAN Published by MARVEL, USA, 2007 ISBN 10: 078512439X ISBN 13: 9780785124399 Seller: MySEAbooks, Harlingen, U.S.A. While I really did like the book, this volume might be the low point of the run some of the later books are much more original and sucked me in more than this one did. He also brings a lot of detail to the look of the characters. Phillips gritty style fits the story well there aren’t many bright colors or flashy comic book panels in the book. ![]() The story may have some noir tropes, but they are done differently and the end results are sometimes unexpected.īrubaker is known for his crime writing and this book shows why he writes shady characters well and can get you to care for the bad guy. He’s driven back into big crime when a crooked cop has a score they need him for. The first book, Coward, is the story of Leo, a small time pick pocket who avoids the big score after one went bad. The series is a collection of one off stories where you can read the volumes out of order. Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips bring crime fiction/noir to life in Criminal from Image Comics. Many people hear comics and graphic novels and they instantly think of super-heroes this is not one of those books. ![]()
