Drawn by Russ Braun, it will be picking up in-story twelve years after The Boys #72  finale, the marriage of Hughie and Annie (Starlight) is derailed by a mysterious document that threatens to rip open the scars of the past and reveal nightmarish truths about The Boys. "Originally I never intended to do more with The[...]

It doesn't seem like the kind that demands a sequel, but it conveys that Garth Ennis and Russ Braun aren't 100% committed to closing the book on Jimmy's Bastards. Jimmy's Bastards #9 art by Russ Braun and John Kalisz Speaking of Braun, the artwork stays strong through the finish Even if the gore gets a little uncomfortable[...]

Meanwhile, Junior is having issues with his employees. Jimmy's Bastards #8 cover by Andy Clarke and Jose Villarrubia This is the penultimate issue to Garth Ennis and Russ Braun's Jimmy's Bastards With it, we have a different kind of Jimmy, a different Nancy, and, well, Junior and the bastards are mostly the same.

Russ Braun and John Kalisz manage to make the world of Jimmy's Bastards just as ugly and fluid as it should be. Jimmy's Bastards is not a pleasant read, and, yet, it is a fun one I enjoyed myself in spite of myself This one gets an acidic recommendation that is just as toxic and grinning[...]

There's innuendo all over the place, and the characters are sharp and smart. I want a whole book about this character. The art, by Russ Braun, is my favorite part of the comic Braun is a fantastic artist who draws gore exceptionally well His depiction of Bobo is delightfully frightening and gross, but I love it so[...]
