Criminal (2008) #3

"The Female of the Species"

It's the final of three interlinking standalone stories, in Criminal's new expanded format! 'Female of the Species' is the final piece to the noir puzzle of these three stories of crime and murder in the early 1970s. Told from the sympathetic POV of a Femme Fatale on her path to one final score and the revenge she's been waiting years to get. A heartbreaking look into the other side of a noir tradition. And on top of this longer-than-usual length main story, Criminal now features an expanded back-pages section as well - with articles by Brubaker and other top crime writers, from novelists to screenwriters to comic writers. These noir articles have become a popular piece of the Criminal package, and are something that can only be found in the comics, not in any collections. So don't miss out on this standalone issue of the most acclaimed crime comic on the stands!
