About this ebook

KELLY SUE DECONNICK (Avengers Assemble, Captain Marvel) and EMMA RIOS (Dr. Strange, Osborn) reunite to bring you an all-new ongoing series that marries the magical realism of Sandman with the western brutality of Preacher. Death's daughter rides the wind on a horse made of smoke and her face bears the skull marks of her father. Her tale of retribution is as beautifully lush as it is unflinchingly savage.

Ratings and reviews

For whatever reason, the time-honored genre of the western has fallen out of vogue. Pretty Deadly makes a compelling argument for bringing it back. Gorgeous, lyrical, and bloody, Kelly Sue DeConnick and Emma Ríos’ series takes place on eerie moonlit plains and in whorehouses of questionable repute; with music and gunfire, we’re told the strange story of Ginny, the vengeful daughter of Death, and the people whose lives Ginny affects... and ends.

As with many first issues, intriguing, but hard to tell if the story will pay off. I waited for the trade paperback. The art is dope! Definitely going to look up more of her work. Hoping there's more issues in the works

I started reading comics a few years ago and I am a huge fan of Image comics. I subscribed to Pretty Deadly at my local comic book store. The art and story are FANTASTIC!
