Homicide, the celebrated true crime-book from the creator of HBO's
The Wire, is reenvisioned in this first volume of a gritty,
cinematic graphic novel duology. In 1988, journalist David Simon
was given unprecedented access to the Baltimore Police Department's
homicide unit. Over the next twelve months, he shadowed detectives
as they took on a slew of killings in a city where killings were
common. Only the most heinous cases stood out-chief amongst them,
the rape and murder of eleven-year-old Latonya Wallace. Originally
published in 1991, Simon's Homicide became the basis for the
acclaimed television show Homicide: Life on the Streets and
inspired HBO's The Wire. Now, this true-crime classic is reimagined
as a gritty two-part graphic novel series.
