Story and art by HOWARD CHAYKIN
136 pages $24.99 (Adults only)
It’s been a long, long time . . .

Down-on-his-luck jazz musician Cass Pollack plummets into an unrelenting nightmare of sex and death, lost in the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles, where life is cheap and every shadow holds a fearsome secret.
 
Still as smart and savage as when it was new, Chaykin’s brutally coarse masterwork is re-mastered for this Dynamite edition, which collects the entire 12-issue series.
