From writer Brian Michael Bendis (House of M) and Michael Avon Oeming (Blue Book) of the Eisner Award-winning, bestselling Powers comes this brand-new world of historical crime fiction like you’ve never seen before with Murder Inc.: Jagger Rose #1.
Discover a world in which the five families of organized crime never lost their stranglehold on the United States. Now, half the country is a smorgasbord of sex and sin ruled by loyalty and “family values” and the rest of the world looks on in awe, rage, or jealousy. Join us as newly “made” Valentine Gallo and Jagger Rose rise through the ranks of the notorious Bonavese family. No spoilers, but Jagger has already proven herself one of the greatest assassins of all time. And, uh, the Pope would like a word. Yeah, that Pope. Huh.
Stellar art from Oeming and top-notch writing by Bendis perfectly complement each other, just like the iconic awarding-winning Powers did years ago – creating a magical package! Murder Inc.: Jagger Rose is perfect for fans of the original United States of Murder Inc. series and new readers alike. This allows new and older readers to get at least something out of the new comic book series.
With no holds barred, Bendis and Oeming have created a chilling American crime saga that will haunt readers and haven’t skipped a beat.
Murder Inc.: Jagger Rose hits local comic book shelves on May 10, 2023 with the first issue of the six-issue series from Dark Horse Comics.
