Second & Fourth Sundays: Commander! 1:00pm-4:00pm
This April we are discussing The One Hand and the Six Fingers!
Two of the hottest writers in comics — RAM V and DAN WATTERS — have teamed up with artists LAURENCE CAMPBELL and SUMIT KUMAR to tell the most unique crime thriller, now collected in the manner it was intended to be read in — with the miniseries issues as alternating chapters!
THE ONE HAND tells the story of Neo Novena detective, ARI NASSER — a grizzled homicide detective who’s about to retire with an enviable record, until a brutal murder occurs bearing all the hallmarks of the “One Hand Killer”… which should be impossible since Ari already put him away not once but twice in years past.
In THE SIX FINGERS, Neo Novena archaeology student, JOHANNES VALE has always been so very in control of his life. But when he commits a brutal murder using the M.O. of an historic and notorious serial killer, everything begins to spiral out of control… and Johannes doesn’t remember doing it.
