Writer Joe Casey (Godland) and artist Chris Burnham, the team responsible for the cult hit NIXON'S PALS bring a whole new kind of crime comic with Officer Downe, a one-shot available from Image Comics this July. Officer Downe features a police officer who won't let anything -- including death -- stop him from taking down the worst criminals in town.
"This book is the antidote for the event comic that takes waaaaaayyy too long to tell too little story -- the "talky" alterna-comic that lacks the proper amount of mayhem -- and any of the company-owned pabulum that they try to pass off as entertainment," exclaims Casey. "You have the right to remain silent... and experience a *true* hero for our times.”
Officer Downe walks the eternal beat and delivers the eternal beat-down! Much more than man...he is policeman! It's hyper-violence on the mean city streets, from Joe Casey and Chris Burnham -- an all-new one-shot in which a lone Badass With A Badge takes on the scourges of the criminal underworld! Not even death itself can stop this powerhouse of justice! Officer Downe is one cop that'll keep coming back for more...even from beyond the grave!
Officer Downe, a full-color 48-page one-shot for $4.99, will be in stores July 14, 2010.
