- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 October 2016Dark, very dark, but insightful, interesting and entertaining. They read like storyboards for a 'Morality Tales of the Unexpected', they could do with being filmed.

5.0 out of 5 stars " And that's a very good thing. He made me think
I've recently been introduced to the writings of Andrew Vachss. This is my THIRD copy of this book (somewhat for collectors value to me). It's really hard for me to explain who and what or even WHY Andrew is a big deal. The first few books left me with a sense of 'Wha?" And that's a very good thing. He made me think, he left me speechless, he makes me feel small and insignificant! HOW does a man like this think of some of his subject matter? DO the research and see WHO he is. It will start to click. To me there's nothing better than someone that can write an entire story in a few pages, and NOT leave you wanting to know more details - they are/were there. You don't have to fill in much as he's provided the framework. I can remember only one other writer that made me feel a sense of wonder like Mr. Vachss does. He's in great company, but this is HIS review. Buy ANY Vachss book, and you won't be disappointed, I guarantee that.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true Vachss graphic novel
My wife and stepson are huge fans of Andrew Vachss. Got him the original comic series and she got the graphic novel version. Everything was perfect.

3.0 out of 5 stars where's Burke?
Each story was OK, but just OK. Vachss has written much better stories, such as Blue Bell. Any of the Burke series would have been much better
