Image Comics have released a specially drawn trailer for the original graphic novel tale, PULP, on its way to us from this May from the multi-Eisner Award winning team of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips.
Max Winters, a pulp writer in 1930s New York, finds himself drawn into a story not unlike the tales he churns out at five cents a word – tales of a Wild West outlaw dispensing justice with a six-gun. But will Max be able to do the same, when pursued by bank robbers, Nazi spies, and enemies from his past?
Find out in this must-have thriller from one of comics’ most acclaimed creative teams, perfect for fans of The Fade Out and Criminal.
• Pulp – Hardcover Edition will be available on Wednesday 20th May 2020 and in bookstores on Tuesday 26th May 2020
