Reviews
"A compelling crime story...sharp and crisp..." - First Comic News "Peepland hooked me instantly" - Comic Bastards "An interesting look at crime in the mid 1980s." - SciFi Pulse "One of the most exciting, intriguing and explosive starts to a story this year!" - Reading with a Flight Ring ..".if you're not familiar with noir, this is a great introduction to the genre. You're in the hands of two master storytellers working in a genre they obviously love. And if you're already a fan, sit back and enjoy the ride they're going to take you on, with every dark and greasy twist it has in store for you." - Fanbase Press "A comic with sleaze in its DNA... Camerini's art being both visually appealing and provocative." - Medium "Hard Case Crime may be the best new American publisher to appear in the last decade" Neal Pollack in The Stranger
