CRIMINAL TP VOL 10 CRUEL SUMMER NEW PRINTING (MR)
Description
Celebrating the Prime Video series adaptation, the tenth tale in Brubaker and Phillips' landmark crime series returns to print with a striking new cover and design. Ed Brubaker's taut storytelling and Sean Phillips's kinetic art converge for a modern noir epic that deepens Criminal's intergenerational web of deceit and consequence. Set in the summer of 1988, Teeg Lawless returns home to plan the heist of a lifetime, only to discover his son Ricky and a circle of friends walking the same skewed path toward violence and betrayal. The story unfurls with quiet menace, moral gray areas, and a tragic sense of heritage as the past casts a long shadow over the present. Cruel Summer stands as one of Brubaker and Phillips' most ambitious Crime tales, a pulsating, character-driven thriller that anchors the entire Criminal continuity while inviting new readers into its shadowy world.
