CITY OF DEMONS #2

City of Demons #2 plunges readers into 1924 Los Angeles, where a powerful figure's death rattles Hollywood's gilded facade. Detective Lawrence Kay is drawn into the case before dawn, and what he uncovers hints at a crime more tangled than a simple hit. As tempers flare between the city’s two most dangerous families and pressure mounts from every side, he turns to Lucas Short, a man trying to outrun his past, to untangle a mystery already shifting beneath their feet. With alliances wavering and secrets stalking every corner, the pair move through smoky backrooms, neon-lit streets, and dusty archives in search of truth. Parker Newman’s taut writing drives the noir mood, while Kingsley Ezeh’s artwork—bold, kinetic, and atmospheric—brings the era to life in stark black-and-white. City of Demons continues a gripping tale of crime, loyalty, and justice in a city that never sleeps.
