Description
Harvey Award Nominated Series for 2014 and 2015; Russ Manning Newcomer Nominee for artist Del Rey. Collected for the first time. Los Angeles in the 1950s is a place of contrast. It’s home to the bright lights and movie stars of Hollywood’s golden age… and a hotbed of organized crime muscling in on Mickey Cohen’s turf. But LAPD has a plan -- Harvey Slater, a detective authorized off-the-books to take care of “untouchable” criminal problems. The criminals aren’t the only untouchable thing Slater’s going after, though. When his captain’s absent and beautiful and very, very dangerous daughter returns, Slater quickly finds himself entangled in the trouble she brings with her… and her ties to his other cases! Nudity, sexual situations, violence. Variant covers by Terry Dodson, Dustin Nguyen, Del Rey, Erik Gist. Five and six prelim ideas and then cover roughs and studies for each issue by Del Rey. Just because you're not proven guilty doesn't mean you're innocent. So says Harry Slater, homicide detective who moonlights as a ruthless hitman for the LAPD. When he's not on a murder case or taking out mobsters, Slater's beating up ex-partners, chasing old flames, and throwing back a few fingers of bourbon. But when Bonnie Brae reenters his life, his world quickly turns upside down and Slater finds himself caught between the woman he loves and a war with the National Crime Syndicate. From writer Bryce Carlson (Zombie Tales) and artist Vanesa Del Rey (The Creeping Below), experience the entire dark, violent, and sensual look into corruption on both sides of the law, inspired by the true history of LA and collected into one volume for the first time! "You may think you've had your fill of L.A. cop stories...But trust me, you haven't heard this one before. Not in the way Bryce and Vanesa tell it." - Duane Swierczynski "HIT may be the noirest noir comic ever written! I thought it was amazing..." - R.L. Stine "A violent piece of 1950s noir...comics' next big 'Hit.'" - USA Today "...raw, gritty depiction of 1950s Los Angeles coated with whiskey, cigarettes, sex and murder. ...sexy, violent noir like never before.
