Back in print and collected together for the first time, this Stone Church Press edition compiles the first three chapters of Jake KellyÕs ongoing DEATH, DESTRUCTION, VICE, & SLEAZE saga: DOOMSDAY MAP, SHADOWS WILL FALL, and IN THE NEW ERA. Torn from ClevelandÕs past, these self-contained true crime yarns are a whirlwind ride through the rustbeltÕs underbelly: bombings, murder, betrayalÉ and the wildest burlesque show you could possibly imagine. While most non-fiction graphic novels are little more than illustrated book reports that piggyback on otherÕs research, Jake Kelly rolls up his sleeves and does the hard work� scouring microfiche, cold-calling witnesses, beating the streetÉ and mapping the connections. The result is a dazzling spiderÕs web of corruption, debasement, and the urban id. Revised, corrected, and rescanned from the original art, this collection is a scream of desperation that will continue to echo in readerÕs minds. If you like drinking whiskey from an ashtray, youÕll love DEATH, DESTRUCTION, VICE, and SLEAZE.
