This Vertigo anthology features stories by top talent that explore the dark nooks and crannies of an always timely topic--war. Beneath the napalm-scorched Vietnamese countryside, a crew of tunnel rats encounter a horror beyond their wildest imagination...On the mean streets of Chicago's Southside, a mortally-wounded gang-banger tells how he lost his nerve in battle...On the blood-drenched fields of Feudal Japan, two warring Shoguns devise an ingenious way to settle their decades-old dispute.
Taking us from smoggy Los Angeles to the woods of Idaho, from Hawaii at the turn of the twentieth century to the post-Civil War frontier, these riveting stories trace the perils and occasional triumphs of lawmen and women who put themselves in harm's way to face down the bad guys. Some of them even walk the edge of becoming bad guys themselves. In T. Jefferson Parker's "Skinhead Central," an ex-cop and his wife find unexpected menace in the idyllic setting they have chosen for their retirement. In Alafair Burke's "Winning," a female officer who is attacked in the line of duty must protect her own husband from his worst impulses. In Michael Connelly's "Father's Day", Harry Bosch faces one of his most emotionally trying cases, investigating a young boy's death. These are hard-hitting, thrilling, and utterly unforgettable stories, from some of the best writers in the mystery world.
The legendary Vertigo horror anthology that will get under your skin—one slice at a time. It’s the little things in life that matter most: the tiny leak in the fuel line; the faint smell of decay that won’t wash off; the way a knife blade catches the light. These are the things that stick with us, no matter how much we want to forget—the things that make us flinch . No one is more familiar with this unnerving territory than the twisted souls whose hallucinatory work is preserved between these covers—an unprecedented gathering of fever dreams and waking nightmares scraped directly from the darkest corners of the greatest minds in comics. Collects FLINCH #1-8. Featuring work by Brian Azzarello , Jim Lee , Garth Ennis , Frank Quitely , Bill Willingham , Richard Corben , Eduardo Risso , Bill Sienkiewicz and many more.
