The Roach is a noir detective story pushed to its extremes. The Roach's characters & settings aren't overt or gratuitous. But the story & art are unflinching & unvarnished. Though the subject matter is mature (but no sex, nudity or irrelevant violence), there is a deep, devoted niche of comic book readers who adore this type of story. And the art is quite groundbreaking. It's sure to garner the company very positive reviews & coverage.
Like Menthu, The Roach is a 4-story arc---its last issue being double-sized. Unlike Menthu, The Roach is black & white. J.H.Williams III, a highly respected & award winning artist, excecuted The Roach's covers. And I am working to publish Issue 5.
