Quick like a bunny! Grab what you need and get over to Meltdown/Hollywood this Wednesday for a signing by V for Vendetta co-creator David Lloyd. David will be in store from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 30th to sign and promote his new work, Kickback from Dark Horse.
Kickback is an original graphic novel in the crime genre that tells the tale of Joe Canelli, a crooked cop working in a corrupt police force. Joe is haunted by nightmares of powerlessness. When his partner is brutally murdered and he's betrayed by his colleagues, it appears that Joe's nightmares are coming true. With his back against the wall there's only one thing he can do - turn against the criminal network that he once embraced.
"He's a corrupt cop in a corrupt force, but he's just an ordinary guy," said Lloyd. "And he's corrupt because that's the 'way things are.' He's on the take because all his buddies are on the take, and it's expedient to be so in a city where drug-money pays for more firepower than the police can tackle, and a total war against crime is impossible to win. It's the sensible route to take. It's wrong, it's immoral, but it's sensible."
This is a rare opportunity to meet and chat with a brilliant artist outside of the hugger-mugger of the convention squall. David is happy to sign all non-perishable items.
