Ratings and reviews

Good story, but gets a bit confusing at times. Lots of bouncing around between characters. If you like the author's previous work, then you should enjoy this.

I was getting tired of superheroes so I picked this up and was stunned at how well its written. A real page turner.

Everyone who enjoys reading great graphic novels should have this book in their library. I put this one in my "SPECIAL" category. Refreshing to read something as innovative as this. Just a great, original story with a.....well I don't want to spoil it for everyone. Just get it. You'll love it.

About the author

Ed Brubaker has won the Best Writer Award in the Harveys and the Eisners five times since 2006. His work with Sean Phillips on Sleeper, Criminal, Incognito, and Fatale (from Image Comics), has been translated around the world to great acclaim. He was raised partly on Navy bases, and began school in Cuba, on the Naval base at Guantanamo Bay. He credits being forced to go to his mother's AA meetings throughout much of his childhood with planting the seed of writing in his brain, and his father's love of comics and movies for nurturing it. He currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife Melanie and their dog Watson, where he works in comics, film, and television. And he hates writing about himself in third person, but what's he gonna do?

Sean Phillips is a British comic book artist, known for his work on DC Comics' Sleeper, WildC.A.T.s, Batman, Hellblazer and Image Comics' Fatale.
