NEW YORK FIVE #1

There’s nothing more exciting than college life in the big city. But complications can follow you from dark places – and not just from your boring hometown. In THE NEW YORK FIVE, Riley’s sister Angie is making a name in the Lower East Side with her new band, and now Riley is the black sheep of the family. Lona’s murky past appears to have been hiding an alarming proficiency for stalkerism, and Merissa and Ren will confront uncomfortable situations involving older men. But who is the “five” in THE NEW YORK FIVE? Find out as Vertigo reunites this cast with its stellar creative team of Brian Wood (DEMO, DMZ, NORTHLANDERS) and Ryan Kelly (LUCIFER, Local) in this standard-sized 4-issue miniseries.

  1. I’m glade there is more to this book. I enjoyed New York 4 a lot. I wonder if I should reread it before reading this.

  2. I tried this based on the good buzz around it, and I feel like I’m missing something.  The art was fantastic, but the “story” was boring as crap.  It’s just following normal people around having to deal with normal crap, except the characters lack anything endearing to make the mundane entertaining.

  3. I bet Ron loved every minute of this.

  4. Y’know, I enjoyed FF #587 but I think this probably won my POTW. I have no idea what’s happening, but it felt so excellently realized, I have to give it props. Fun times, Mr. Wood. Please, continue.
