A hyperviolent graphic novel from the creator of The End of the F&#!ing World and I Am Not Okay With Us, following the exploits of Revenger. A hardboiled festival of force, fights--but not forgiveness.

Hillary Chute chronicles comics culture, explaining underground comics (also known as "comix") and graphic novels, analyzing their evolution, and offering fascinating portraits of the creative men and women behind them.
