Showing posts with the label graphic novels

Stumptown, Vol. 1 by Greg Rucka

So, there's a show adapted from this book that I haven't seen yet. But. I got a chance to read this one from Netgalley and I'm so glad I did! This graphic novel is about Dexedrine Callisto Parios (no, really!) A PI with gambling debts who is the caretaker of her intellectually disabled brother. Dex is given the chance to pay off her debts if she finds a young woman named Charlotte, only Charlotte doesn't necessarily want to be found. The story crackles with twists and turns and the art is fantastic. I have a feeling that there's no way to make the show as gritty as the book but we'll see!
Why is the third Lazarus book so expensive? I got the first two for about five bucks each!
