    Short summary describing this issue.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    One of the classic Alan Moore works is finally back in print in this new full color, magazine size, printing with totally re-mastered artwork and lettering. As Alan Moore himself says " A Small Killing is one of the best pieces of comic book art that I have ever been involved in." Adman Timothy Hole has everything going for him and has now been handed the biggest assignment of his life, marketing a major cola in Russia. But his smooth life begins to unravel as he is stalked by a demonic child that makes him question not just who he is, but how he really effects those around him. It is about the little murders that we all have to make each day just to get by. The trace assassinations of tiny things. Really, how much damage can be done by a small killing? This work is much more than a sophisticated thriller, it is a nonlinear masterpiece, from the writer who has defined adult graphic novels! As an added bonus this graphic novel includes a new commentary article by both Alan Moore and the artist Oscar Zarate.

    Alan Moore, a name that brings well deserved attention.  Most famous for his acclaimed Watchmen, Moore would retreat to this original graphic novel as proof to himself that he is more then just Superheroes.  A Small Killing is likely the most overlooked of the "Keystone" Alan Moore books.  It was the winner of the Best Original Graphic Novel in 1994 and it also marks Moore's first major work outside Superheroes.  Young Timothy Hole the artist. A Small Killing is not a coming of age story, bu...
