Torpedo #4

Book Four of Abuli and Bernet’s masterpiece, Torpedo, continues Luca Torelli’s adventures in the stinking, crime-infested waters known as New York City. There Luca and his crony pal, Rascal, maneuver their way through a black comedy of murders, mayhem and an assorted series of misadventures, all the while breathing in the most authentic version of 1930s New York ever portrayed on the comics page!

Back Blurb

This is the story Luca Torelli, a poor immigrant from Italy who came to New York to find a better life. Instead of a land of milk and honey he found a filthy city that was long on corruption and short on morality, a place filled with predators and human vermin. To survive in such a place, young Luca adapted to his surroundings, lived off his wits, prospered with coldhearted cunning... until he eventually became Torpedo.

Enrique Sánchez Abuli and Jordi Bernet's masterpiece is a darkly humorous exploration of the criminal underbelly in 1930s New York City. Abduli's distinctive narrative builds the story over time and Bernet's masterful renditions of the title character and the city he inhabits are stunningly cinematic.
