Like a true crime podcast crossed with a long-lost diary, Where the
Body Was is unlike anything Brubaker and Phillips have ever done,
and a must-have for all their avid fans! A boarding house full of
druggies. A neglected housewife. A young girl who thinks she’s a
superhero. A cop who wants to be left alone. And a Private
Detective looking for a runaway girl. These stories collide one
fateful summer in Where the Body Was, a tale of love and murder in
the suburbs, told from a dozen different points of view. All the
neighbors on the block have an opinion about the murder and how it
happened, but which of them is telling the truth? Starting with a
map of the crime scene, this murder mystery follows the ripples of
this killing as they echo through decades of love and loss and
passion and violence. Where the Body Was is a tour-de-force readers
will be obsessed with from grandmasters Ed Brubaker and Sean
Phillips—the bestselling multiple Eisner award winning creators
of Pulp, Reckless, and Criminal.
"In the harsh light of the third decade of this century it seems
everything that made the comics work, including the bloody
single-mindedness, shines ever brighter." - Tom Shapira, The Comics

Sex, drugs, and murder in 1980s Los Angeles... And the best new
twist on paperback pulp heroes since The Punisher or Jack Reacher.
Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, the modern masters of crime noir,
bring us the last thing anyone expected from them - a good guy - in
a bold new series of original graphic novels, with three books
releasing over the next year, each a full-length story that stands
on its own. Meet Ethan Reckless: Your trouble is his business, for
the right price. But when a fugitive from his student radical days
reaches out for help, Ethan must face the only thing he fears...
his own past. "Imagine Redford at his peak, ambling through
sun-drenched, eighties L.A. in a serpentine plot that is equal
parts Long Goodbye and Point Break. No one does crime fic like
Brubaker and Phillips and their collaboration has never felt more
new. Explosive. Vital. And yes... reckless. I love this book." -
Damon Lindelof (Lost, HBO's Watchmen) "Reckless is an absolute
rush: on the same level as golden age Travis McGee novels and the
hardest-hitting Richard Stark stories. This one comes at you as
fast as Steve McQueen in a souped-up Mustang and as hard as Charles
Bronson with a baseball bat. You gotta have it." - Joe Hill (Locke
& Key, N0S4A2) Look for book 2 in the Reckless series in April
2021!
The next book in the red-hot Reckless series is here! "Oh man, this
book pushed every crime fiction button for me... Bliss." - Patton
Oswalt Bestselling crime noir masters Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips
bring us a new original graphic novel starring
troublemaker-for-hire Ethan Reckless. It's 1988 and Ethan has been
hired for his strangest case yet: finding the secrets of a Los
Angeles real estate mogul. How hard could that be, right? Only what
starts as a deep dive into the life of a stranger will soon take a
deadly turn, and find Ethan risking everything that still matters
to him. Another smash hit from the award-winning creators of
RECKLESS, PULP, MY HEROES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN JUNKIES, CRIMINAL, and
KILL OR BE KILLED -- and a must-have for all Brubaker and Phillips
fans!
Secrets, lies, horror, lust, and monsters from the time before time
all collide in Fatale: Death Chases Me. In present day, a man meets
a woman who he becomes instantly obsessed with, and in the 1950s,
this same woman destroys the lives of all those who cross her path,
on a quest for... what? Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips' bestselling
series will leave you craving more! The first arc of Image's
surprise hit is collected just in time for new readers to jump on
board with issue #6!
The final book in the epic FATALE saga by Brubaker and Phillips.
All the threads have come together, and the mysterious immortal
Femme Fatale Josephine has one last chance to escape her fate.
Sex, drugs, rock-n-roll, and ritual killers all collide in the
strangest and most exciting volume of 'Fatale' yet. A strange woman
with no memory stumbles into the lives of a struggling grunge band
in mid-'90s Seattle. Is she their muse? Will she save them from
'One-Hit Wonder' status? Or will she be something much worse,
especially since there's a psycho killer on her trail?
“A fun, fast read that is fully engaging. The multiple story
lines and deeply flawed characters will keep the reader invested.
Some of the content is for a mature audience, but this should not
deter a worthy library purchase. For fans of Brubaker and Phillips,
film noir, and Golden Age Hollywood stories.” - Library Journal
(Starred) Brubaker and Phillips' newest hit series, The Fade Out,
is an epic noir set in the world of noir itself, the backlots and
bars of Hollywood at the end of its Golden Era. A movie stuck in
endless reshoots, a writer damaged from the war and lost in the
bottle, a dead movie star and the lookalike hired to replace her.
Nothing is what it seems in the place where only lies are true. The
Fade Out is Brubaker and Phillips' most ambitious project yet!
Brubaker and Phillips best-selling series keeps on hitting, as our
vigilante hero goes deeper into the darkness, and the NYPD begin to
realize there's a masked man killing bad guys all over town. Both a
thriller and a deconstruction of vigilantism, KILL OR BE KILLED is
unlike anything this award-winning team has done before. Collects
KILL OR BE KILLED #5-10
On an Earth shockingly similar to the Marvel Universe's, an alien
virus has mutated the world's greatest super heroes into
flesh-eating monsters. What happens when they run out of humans to
eat? Then, when the Silver Surfer arrives, the world-devourer
Galactus is never far behind. But the Marvel Zombies might just be
a match for his all-consuming hunger.
Tracy Lawless returns with a vengeance in this strikingly-designed
new edition from Image! Tracy Lawless is still a man caught between
a history of violence and his own conscience. And now the worst bad
guy in the world is tasked with a new job: solving a series of
murders of untouchable crime lords.
A beautiful but damaged woman returns home with nothing but
vengeance on her mind, and two best friends, one the son of the
city's crime kingpin, are caught in the crossfire. Brubaker and
Phillips get experimental, with three interlinking viewpoints that
tell a tragic tale.
