Quick Pick
In this alternate reality, the Mafia won the mob wars. The result is that the USA is now run by enormous crime syndicates who impose their will on all of American’s citizens. Enter Valentine Gallo, a newly “made” man and the mysterious hitwoman, Jagger Rose. Together, they’ll begin to learn the truth behind the “families,” and that just might change everything.
Written by near-legendary Brian Michael Bendis, this crime fiction comic packs a powerful punch. Very entertaining—but parents should be aware the story contains gratuitous and graphic depictions of violence, sexuality, and profanity.
