THE GREATEST ROCK N ROLL SWINDLE! It s 1977, and crime on the once-swinging streets of London is as soft and flabby as an overfed corgi.

It s 1977, and crime on the once-swinging streets of London is as soft and flabby as an overfed corgi. Nearly a decade has gone by since the brothers Kray were locked away, and it s high time for the torch to be passed preferably straight through a bank window. Luckily, a new generation of snot-nosed Robin Hoods filled with attitude, alcohol and anarchy are ready to burst onto the scene. Now, as Great Britain prepares to celebrate its glorious monarch s Silver Jubilee, a rising gangland queen and her punk-rock robbers are about to pull off the heist of the century and breaking into Buckingham Palace is only the start! Acclaimed creators Simon Oliver (FBP: FEDERAL BUREAU OF PHYSICS) and Rufus Dayglo (TANK GIRL) proudly present the punk-noir crime saga LAST GANG IN TOWN a brash, bold, and bloody brilliant take on the English underworld!"

Reseña del editor:

Forget what you know of England, of the "Land of Hope and Glory." Instead, try damp and depressing, and embrace this miserable island for what it is. Our story kicks off in 1976: the country coming apart at its flared corduroy seams, a decade after the Great Train Robbery, when British crime has gone decidedly soft in the middle. Time for a new generation of criminals to rise: a band of snotty-nosed heroes driven by destiny and cheap cider, who will strike fear back into the establishment, put art back into crime and crime back into art, and pull off what will become known as the heist of the century. Collects LAST GANG IN TOWN #1-6.
