It seems writers known for superhero stories have a secret desire to write pulp noir fiction. Some are terrible (BMB‘s GOLDFISH), and some, like this one, hit the target perfectly.
Fortunately, I came upon the origin story for the characters of an ongoing title. And, thankfully, this author avoids the obvious clichés of the genre for a simpler, more realistic tone. The result is a great crime series that I am thrilled to have found.
