DARK RAIN A NEW ORLEANS STORY HC

“DARK RAIN has the twists of The Treasure Of the Sierra Madre, the political punch of When The Levees Broke and the character interplay of The Defiant Ones.” – Reginald Hudlin, writer of Black Panther, director of Boomerang

From Mat Johnson, writer of the acclaimed INCOGNEGRO, comes a graphic novel thriller set in the days after Hurricane Katrina. Two small-time ex-cons with big dreams get the idea that this would be the perfect time to rob a bank. Catch is, the bank is in New Orleans, and they’re on parole in Houston. Now, as every sane person tries to get out of The Big Easy, Emmit and Dabny will do whatever it takes to get in.

As they journey through a tide of human suffering, Dabny wants to help, and Emmit sees only the money. But a rogue commander of the ruthless security force “Dark Rain” has his sights set on taking down the same bank. If Emmit and Dabny don’t outrace him, their last hope for a second chance could be washed away in the floodwaters – along with their lives.

  1. I may not pick this up this week but it’s definitely on my wish list.  Hoping to hear some reviews.

  2. Waiting for reviews on this one. ANd I still need to read Incognegro. One thing though, I kind of dislike leading with a quote that compares the book to three other things, there’s absolutely no chance for the book to stand on its own if you do that. I’ll constantly be in the frame of mind of trying to figure out how it’s like Sierra Madre.

  3. LOVE that local libraries in my area are getting comics! Have this on hold and might buy it if I like it.
