The best work of Brubaker and Phillips I've read so far. While the whole Criminal series is quite fantastic, vol 5 and 6 are really outstanding, and the defining noir-comics of this generation.
Very dark, gritty and depressing, there is no room for good in the world of Criminal, and this story is the very heart of darkness. A brutal but beautiful look at greed, love and nostalgia and a must read for crime- and Brubaker-fans. Amazing.
This one comes to my mind when I think about the series or when it's been mentioned. An example of how good Brubaker/Phillips are .
