By ED BRUBAKER and SEAN PHILIIPS with VAL STAPLES on colors
The best-selling crime comic finally returns, and with their most ambitious story yet. Obsession, sex, money, murder, and nostalgia for days long past all collide in THE LAST OF THE INNOCENT. Riley Richards got it all… The hottest girl in school and a ticket to the big time… so why isn't he happy now? Why is he getting involved in gambling and drugs and shady characters in the city? Why can't he forget the life he left behind in small town Brookview? And why is he suddenly plotting murder? And as always, each issue of Criminal contains unique back-up features, articles and artwork, which are only available in the single issues. 32 PGS

What's that? You're a big fan of Crime Noir? But you're also a huge fan of Archie comics? If only there was someone that could combine these two genres together you say? Luckily Ed (Lowlife, Sleepers, Captain America) Brubaker has heard your cries. I figured, hey it's just another Criminal mini-series - it can wait. See, I took it for granted, but Brubaker somehow knew I was becoming complacent in my expectations of his excellent crime noir titles and shook me out of my stupor by delivering a completely unexpected but wonderful merging of these two beloved genres. I always dug Brubakers Criminal & Incognito books but he's really raised the bar with this one folks! Creepy and delightful all at the same time.
