Ed Brubaker Houses of the Unholy

Produktbeskrivelse

Houses of the Unholy is a riveting horror thrill-ride from bestselling creators Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, the award-winning team behind CRIMINAL (soon to be a TV series on Amazon Prime), RECKLESS, NIGHT FEVER and WHERE THE BODY WAS. In this new tale, an FBI agent from the cult crime beat and a woman with a past linked to the Satanic Panic are drawn into a terrifying hunt for an insane killer hiding in the shadows of the underworld. This pulse-pounding story asks: can you ever escape your past, or are all your bad decisions just more ghosts to haunt you, wherever you go? Select praise for Brubaker & Phillips: "Brubaker and Phillips's books have always been about eight years ahead of their time." --Brian K. Vaughan, SAGA, Paper Girls "Brubaker & Phillips continue to make sweet music together, broadcast to you in the form of the best comics around." --Robert Kirkman, Invincible, The Walking Dead "Ed and Sean are that rare longterm collaboration that never become complacent, each project is a new revelation, the love visibly increased, the enthusiasm for the craft only growing over time. You don't have to consider the purchase, you make it on instinct at this point." --Rick Remender, Deadly Class, Black Science "Like Scorsese and De Niro, Brubaker and Phillips are the unmatched masters of a certain kind of storytelling--those fables of doomed and deluded men who are ready to die bloody, defending the tatters of their soiled American dreams. A new title from the sharpshooters behind Criminal and Fatale is reason enough to go on living." --Joe Hill, Locke & Key, Horns, NOS4A2 "Brubaker and Phillips have achieved the sort of creative consistency that'd justify critics filing their INSTANT CLASSIC reviews before they even read whatever they put out next." --Kieron Gillen, The Wicked + The Divine, Die "I've been reading Ed Brubaker comics since the first appearance of Ed Brubaker comics and every single time he announces a new title I mutter to myself: 'ugh! I wish I would've thought of that!'" --Brian Michael Bendis, Powers "I'm a pretty easy mark for any Brubaker-Philips creation..." --Jonathan Hickman, East of West, House of X "Two of the best in the business, no contest." --Kelly Sue DeConnick, Captain Marvel, B*tch Planet Select praise for Brubaker & Phillips' Where the Body Was : "Prolific collaborators Brubaker and Phillips follow their surrealistic thriller Night Fever with this playfully experimental, though no less grittily gripping, stand-alone whodunit-style murder mystery set in a suburban neighborhood over the summer of 1984...VERDICT A fast-paced mystery, propelled by a fascinating cast of characters, that builds to a profoundly moving and deeply romantic climax. Absolutely not to be missed." -- Library Journal , starred review "A masterfully-told puzzle box mystery with a fiercely beating human heart." --Jordan Harper, Edgar Award winning author of Everybody Knows and She Rides Shotgun "Brubaker and Phillips have done it again--a crime story that somehow, in its twists, turns, and thrills, reminds us of the poignancy of lost dreams, missed connections, and a past we'll always crave but never return to." --Sara Gran, author of Come Closer and the Claire DeWitt series "Sean Phillips and Ed Brubaker represent the gold standard for comics noir--brutal, beautiful, and best." --Ian Rankin, bestselling author of the John Rebus books Select praise for Brubaker & Phillips' Night Fever : " Night Fever pulled me in from the first moment with its razor sharp writing and gorgeous art. Brubaker and Phillips have crafted a taut, riveting story, as disturbing as it is satisfying, full of memorable lines and stunning images.
