In this dark and intriguing trade paperback, the mysterious Agent Graves approaches ordinary citizens and gives them an opportunity to exact revenge on a person that has wronged them. Offering his clients an attaché case containing proof of the deed and a gun, he guarantees his "clients" full immunity for all of their actions, including murder. In these opening chapters, Dizzy Cordova, a Latina gangbanger who has just finished a prison sentence, is given the chance to avenge her family's murders, and a downtrodden bartender receives the opportunity to exact revenge against the woman that ruined his life.

If you want a story that starts with a badass idea and spirals out into the sort of bloody modern noir that makes your headspin (in a good way) this is where you start. From Dizzy to Agent Graves to the creeper-epic that is Lono (my personal favorite), there isn't a slow page in the series. And it's Azzarello and Risso-- so do you need to know anything else about it? I didn't think so.
