The third collection of Ed Brubaker and Sean Philiips' critically-acclaimed noir series follows a different twist of the knife this time--telling three interlinking stories that take place during the early 1970s and swirl around the fate of a hard-luck Femme Fatale, a boxer and a thief and killer just home from Vietnam. Each story is told from a different narrative point-of-view, so we can see the varied secrets and hidden desires that ultimately lead to a lot of murder and mayhem.

"Writer Ed Brubaker understands how to tell a great genre story as well as any storyteller out there, and in the pages of Criminal, it's a hell of a lot of fun watching him spin a familiar heist-gone-wrong story into a riveting character study of seriously flawed yet very human individuals." -- IGN.com
