Bree Hale has left a lot behind in her life. Crime. The military. But she can’t leave behind her own family, and when the local crime boss puts a hit out on her brother, there’s nothing she won’t do to save him. Absolutely nothing. Skybound’s pulse-pounding action series returns, with writer JUSTIN JORDAN (REAVER, LUTHER STRODE) and artist BENJAMIN TIESMA delivering an explosive tale of revenge like you’ve never seen before!
I am huge fan of Dead Body Road. If you haven’t read it you should. Dead Body Road: Bad Blood isn’t a sequel (but could be set in the same universe) and is on track to be just as good.
Writer, Justin Jordan, has returned and this time he’s brought with him artist Benjamin Tiesma. Tiesma is an excellent choice. Jordan and Tiesma are joined by colorist Matt Lopes and letterer Pat Brosseau who create a solid team.
Bree Hale is a woman with a mysterious past that involved both military and criminal experience. Bree has left that all behind (she hopes) and now runs a bar where the biggest problem is dealing with folks who drink to much.
When a detective comes in asking questions about her brother, she can honestly say she hasn’t seen or heard from him. The detective isn’t convinced, but what can he do? At closing time a hardcase Bree’s never seen before comes in looking for her brother. She tells him the same thing she told the detective. He leaves but Bree knows it isn’t over. She’s being dragged into whatever mess her brother has made and it could get them both killed.
Dead Body Road: Bad Blood is everything a good crime comic should be. I cannot wait for issue two.
