100 Bullets TP #4 (2002)

A Foregone Tomorrow
This fourth TPB (of thirteen) collects eleven issues (#20-#30) of the Brian Azzarello/Eduardo Risso crime series with a ten-year run that is widely considered among the very best of the decade. Azzarello explores themes of revenge, justice, power, desperation and moral ambiguity in the realistic, sometimes violent narrative. Connections emerge as characters from earlier in the series reappear in a new setting and Azzarello's complex master plot continues to unfold. The DiMaggio/Monroe/JFK plotline is a highlight as noted by a previous reviewer. I'm working my way through the 100 Bullets series, and reading each trade paperback inspires me to include the subsequent volume in my next Amazon order.
