American Caper - Updated Series
Dark Horse Comics
The new crime-fiction saga created and written by Dan Houser (Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption), with additional writing by Lazlow, art by Eisner Award winner David Lapham, and covers by Tyler Boss. A tale of two totally normal, completely damaged families in a world of corrupt businesses, inept local politicians, bungling criminals, and unfortunate leisurewear. We follow the fortunes of two neighbors on the point of collapse: a Mormon hit man and a gambling-addict lawyer, both intertwined in a real-estate deal gone wrong. Mix in a Mexican beauty queen on the run from her past, two escaped convicts in love, a Wall Street billionaire who has become a cowboy, and a maniac hell-bent on revenge. American culture has become a war about real estate, violence, and snake oil. From the tax avoiders in the manicured wilderness of Wyoming to the thought police of liberal Brooklyn to the confused political and environmental battlegrounds of Florida, one thing is certain: This tragedy is someone else’s fault. • New comic book series from the head writer and creative team of Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption! • A brutal satire that reflects on our current pollical nightmare. • Ongoing series.
