STRAY BULLETS: THE KILLERS #2

(W/A) David Lapham

When her niece, missing for almost a year, shows up on her doorstep with a horrifying secret, Carol Hogarth will find out that people can be poison...especially if that person is named Virginia Applejack. Find out what best friends, worst enemies, an artificial leg, and a bottle of rum all have to do with 'THE KILLER WHO AWOKE BEFORE DAWN.'

I'm talking about this because for some unknown reason people are not buying this absolutely amazing comic that by all accounts shouldn't even exist!! Stray Bullets was one of those series that ended very abruptly and left me, along with countless other readers, wondering for 8 long long long years if we would ever know the fate of these doomed, but lovable characters Lapham had injected into our brains, but FINALLY do we not only have the finale of the first series, but we have NEW Stray Bullets as well!! This is by far one of the best comics I have ever read, not to mention one of the greatest crime epics to ever be told in any medium. You are doing yourself a serious disservice if you pass on this black and white, gritty neo-noir masterpiece!!!

I cannot explain to you the sheer shock, awe and excitement when I first heard that Image would be publishing not only the long long long awaited conclusion to David Lapham's noir masterpiece, but new issues as well which blew my freakin' my mind!! The impact that this intense series had upon my young 16 year old psyche was like a gunshot to my head, leaving me with the resounding echoes of its masterful depiction of the depravity and beauty that exists at the very bottom of humanity. This comic is a MUST have for anyone who has ever wondered what lay down that dark and dirty alley in the dark recesses of our minds or if you just wanna be shown how one man's ten year determination can result in a dream that has inspired so many others in their creative paths.
