Steve Lieber
Some things you just can’t get over. When Trish Sullivan left her hometown for college, she left behind unfinished business. Now she’s back and looking to settle up. Trish blames Harvey Harlowe for the death of her little brother, so Trish’s homecoming is an eye-for-an-eye mission. She’s going to kill him, and Harvey should get his affairs in order. But Harvey’s dad has just died, and an injury destroyed his football scholarship. Without a future ahead of him, Trish’s challenge is all the more welcome. He’s more than ready to go down fighting, and no one is going to step in and save him. Showdown is a grounded drama rooted in the burden of family and the weight of revenge from writer Dave Wielgosz (Batman: Man-Bat; TMNT: Mutant Nation) and artist Tadd Galusha (Godzilla: Unnatural Disasters). It’s a gritty and emotional pulp drama in the vein of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’ Criminal, with main covers by artist Steve Lieber (Whiteout). Knuckles will be bruised and noses will be broken... but so will hearts.
