BLACK AND WHITE???
THAT'S RIGHT, THIS BOOK IS IN BLACK AND WHITE!
What better way to deliver this action-packed, badass, gritty thriller than in traditional, hand-drawn stark black and white? When discussing whether or not to color the book, Gambino and I decided that it would be better to let the inks sing in order to really hammer home that pulpy, noir feeling. I think Gambino's contrasts capture the tone of this story perfectly. Don't you?!
Alright, alright, enough blowin' smoke!
LET'S GET INTO IT!
