Riassunto

The conclusion to Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso’s critically acclaimed 100 BULLETS.

How far would you go for revenge? If you were given a chance at deadly retribution with a guarantee that the law could not touch you, would you take it?
 
That’s the opportunity that a man called Agent Graves provides, in the form of a special briefcase containing an untraceable gun and one hundred rounds of ammunition. To the damaged and downtrodden living on the fringes of society, the offer is an once-in-a-lifetime chance to even their scores. But beyond the dilemma of whether or not to pull the trigger lies a deeper and even more troubling concern: just who is making these actions possible — and why?

Collects 100 BULLETS #81-100.

Recensione:

Praise for "100 Bullets"

"An ink-dark series about consequence-free revenge"--NEW YORK TIMES STYLE MAGAZINE

"A meditation on money, power and morality. . . for our money, the best current ongoing series."--PLAYBOY

"The story has it all: flawed protagonists, dirty cops, conspiracy, guns and that big mistake that makes it all go wrong." --CHICAGO TRIBUNE

"100 BULLETS is to crime comics as The Wire is to cop shows. That is, they both reached the pinnacle of their respective genres and then went on to transcend them altogether."
--Chicago Sun-Times

"A roller-coaster ride... those who have been following the series all along aren't likely to be disappointed by the endgame."
-- The Onion

"Since its inception, the stars have aligned to enable Azzarello's labyrinthine revenge/noir series to evolve into one of the most memorable comics in recent years."
-- Newcity Chicago

"All the pieces fall into place in the greater mosaic of the series, where justice and retribution are nothing but ephemeral fantasies for the pawns in a game of power."
-- Washington Post Book World

"It's difficult to imagine a more perfectly executed finish to this long-form narrative."
--Comic Book Resources
