Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips return for another installment of the Reckless series, starring troublemaker-for-hire Ethan Reckless in Follow Me Down.
“The Reckless books have not just been a runaway hit, they’ve also been a joy for me and Sean to work on—our great escape has been trying to bring some escapism and pulp thrills to our readers in these strange times. This time out, after letting Anna take the lead in the previous book, Ethan is back in charge, and… well, the book is called Follow Me Down so you can guess that things aren’t exactly coming up roses for him,” said Brubaker in a press release from Image comics. “But there are some big surprises in store here, that will punch our longtime readers in the guts a bit, I hope.”
In the wake of the 1989 earthquake, Ethan takes a trip to San Francisco to search for a missing woman. But almost immediately, he finds himself going down a path of darkness and murder in a case unlike anything he’s faced before.
This is the fifth Reckless book in two years, which is a fantastic accomplishment. I’ve been saying since the first book arrived that you should not be sitting on the fence in regards to the Reckless series. You need to read this now!
Just how good is Reckless? Brubaker and Phillips were nominated for an Eisner Award for Best Graphic Novel for Reckless: Destroy All Monsters.
Reckless: Follow Me Down arrives on October 12, 2022.
