Interested in what has Sam Raimi and Tom Cruise all fired up?
The psyche of his characters is darker, their motives more ambiguous.
Colin Willsons art remains clear and concise with shady undertones but defining dynamic panels to echo Brubakers punchy dialogue.
InSleeper, the focus falls on Holden Carver himself who is playing dangerous games.
It means he has to keep his allies and enemies such as Miss Misery and Genocide at close hand.
The smaller, tighter panels give a denser feel to the drama too.
This is gun-hotnoircrime fiction that would relish a transfer to TV series, in the absence ofThe WireorThe Shield.
Then again, Sam Raimi and Tom Cruise are already linked to a big screen version.
And Im not sure how Carver would react to that.
