Comic Book Action At Its Finest

Brian Wood and Rob G have done it again. Fans of the previous Couriers graphic novels will not be disappointed. Special and Mustafa are 2 of the coolest characters in comics right now and "The Ballad of Johnny Funwrecker" is a prequel story that reveals how they met and how special got her scar. Great characters, beautifully choreographed action sequences, smart dialogue and one hell of an origin story. Order it, read it and make sure you have plenty of hot sauce.
