Synopsis

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!

This is a review of a sample Image provided for me. Unsurprisingly this Brubaker & Phillips collaboration is a crime story about a “fixer” of problems gett... READ MORE
