Fatale #1 (Image)

"So here's how my entire life went off the tracks in one day."~Nicolas Lash

writer: Ed Brubaker
artist: Sean Phillips
colors: Dave Stewart












Kara's first comic for 2012 & the Comic book week January 4th, 2012 is Fatale "Book One: Death Chases Me"..................simply amazing!!!!! 8O

As just the latest in a string of dark filme noire like stories by Ed Brubaker & Sean Phillips Fatale looks like it will be just as fabulous as all of the others................the story is dark & mysterious as is the main character Josephine who the it appears as if it will circle around. & the art work is so very well suited as it is dark & inky with muted colors but descriptive & detailed & sexy at the same time............... it! :)

The tale so far is about Nicolas Lash who is the executor of his father's friend's estate. The friend is a detective story writer & Lash meets the grand daughter of the writer's lost love at his funeral..................who just happens to have the same name & face as her grand mother. Mr. Lash then finds an unpublished manuscript & we begin to read the story of what is probably the writer & grand mother meeting.

I can not stress that Mr.s Brubaker & Phillips are sooooooooooo enticing with all of their collaborations! Last week I said that their "Criminal: Last Of The Innocent" was my fav mini series of last year & "Sleeper: Season 1" is 1 of my fav TPBs............trade paper backs natch!.............ever! You should try these gentle mens' work out! :)

RATING: 8 filme noires out of 10!!!!!!!

When I think of filme noire I think of this 1st for some reason! Bye! *mwah!* ッ*
