Description: Houses of the Unholy by Ed Brubaker, Sean Phillips "In this new tale, an FBI agent from the cult crime beat and a woman with a past linked to the Satanic Panic are drawn into a terrifying hunt for an insane killer hiding in the shadows of the underworld"-- FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Houses of the Unholy is a riveting horror thrill-ride from bestselling creators Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, the award-winning team behind CRIMINAL (soon to be a TV series on Amazon Prime), RECKLESS, NIGHT FEVER and WHERE THE BODY WAS. In this new tale, an FBI agent from the cult crime beat and a woman with a past linked to the Satanic Panic are drawn into a terrifying hunt for an insane killer hiding in the shadows of the underworld. This pulse-pounding story asks: can you ever escape your past, or are all your bad decisions just more ghosts to haunt you, wherever you go? Select praise for Brubaker & Phillips: "Brubaker and Phillipss books have always been about eight years ahead of their time." --Brian K. Vaughan, SAGA, Paper Girls "Brubaker & Phillips continue to make sweet music together, broadcast to you in the form of the best comics around." --Robert Kirkman, Invincible, The Walking Dead "Ed and Sean are that rare longterm collaboration that never become complacent, each project is a new revelation, the love visibly increased, the enthusiasm for the craft only growing over time. You dont have to consider the purchase, you make it on instinct at this point." --Rick Remender, Deadly Class, Black Science "Like Scorsese and De Niro, Brubaker and Phillips are the unmatched masters of a certain kind of storytelling--those fables of doomed and deluded men who are ready to die bloody, defending the tatters of their soiled American dreams. A new title from the sharpshooters behind Criminal and Fatale is reason enough to go on living." --Joe Hill, Locke & Key, Horns, NOS4A2 "Brubaker and Phillips have achieved the sort of creative consistency thatd justify critics filing their INSTANT CLASSIC reviews before they even read whatever they put out next." --Kieron Gillen, The Wicked + The Divine, Die "Ive been reading Ed Brubaker comics since the first appearance of Ed Brubaker comics and every single time he announces a new title I mutter to myself: ugh I wish I wouldve thought of that " --Brian Michael Bendis, Powers "Im a pretty easy mark for any Brubaker-Philips creation..." --Jonathan Hickman, East of West, House of X "Two of the best in the business, no contest." --Kelly Sue DeConnick, Captain Marvel, B*tch Planet Select praise for Brubaker & Phillips Where the Body Was: "Prolific collaborators Brubaker and Phillips follow their surrealistic thriller Night Fever with this playfully experimental, though no less grittily gripping, stand-alone whodunit-style murder mystery set in a suburban neighborhood over the summer of 1984...VERDICT A fast-paced mystery, propelled by a fascinating cast of characters, that builds to a profoundly moving and deeply romantic climax. Absolutely not to be missed." --Library Journal, starred review "A masterfully-told puzzle box mystery with a fiercely beating human heart." --Jordan Harper, Edgar Award winning author of Everybody Knows and She Rides Shotgun "Brubaker and Phillips have done it again--a crime story that somehow, in its twists, turns, and thrills, reminds us of the poignancy of lost dreams, missed connections, and a past well always crave but never return to." --Sara Gran, author of Come Closer and the Claire DeWitt series "Sean Phillips and Ed Brubaker represent the gold standard for comics noir--brutal, beautiful, and best." --Ian Rankin, bestselling author of the John Rebus books Select praise for Brubaker & Phillips Night Fever: "Night Fever pulled me in from the first moment with its razor sharp writing and gorgeous art. Brubaker and Phillips have crafted a taut, riveting story, as disturbing as it is satisfying, full of memorable lines and stunning images. Thought-provoking and highly entertaining." ?Charles Yu, National Book Award winning author of Interior Chinatown "Brubakers masterfully hardboiled scripting is both unnervingly nihilistic and propulsively thrilling, and Phillipss illustration has rarely evoked such nuances of character or absolute menace. VERDICT Another masterwork from a collaborative team that seems increasingly incapable of producing anything less. --Library Journal "Crackling, effortless style." ?Publishers Weekly "The art is striking. Moody and noir, it also makes strong use of colors: one page contrasts yellow with dominant blues, purples, and blacks to illuminate graphic violence, while other pages use lighter tones to indicate Jonathan having a greater measure of control. Part mysterious crime story, part psychological drama, Night Fever is a haunting graphic novel in which a man tests his limits and realizes why they existed in the first place." ?Foreword Reviews Author Biography Ed Brubaker is one of the most acclaimed writers in comics, winning five best writer Eisner and Harvey Awards in the last ten years.

Review "Brubaker and Phillips (Where the Body Was) continue to prove themselves as two of the very best creators to ever generate works of sequential storytelling in this haunting, knottily plotted hybrid of thriller and character study."-- "--Library Journal (Starred Review)""Speckled with vibrant color, bold sequencing, and carefully crafted splash pages, this dive into the underbelly of the satanic panic moves at a rapid-fire pace while sticking to the atmospheric formula Brubaker and Phillips are known for. Its a spine-tingling addition to their oeuvre."-- " --Publishers Weekly""Brubaker and Phillipss books have always been about eight years ahead of their time."--Brian K.
