This copy is Brand New, providing a pristine experience for fans of hardboiled crime fiction, indie comics, and high-end illustrative storytelling.

Story & Creative Vision

Stringer is a relentless look at the dark side of the drug trade, told with Kindlon’s signature wit and gritty realism.

• The Narrative: The story follows a low-level drug "stringer"—a middleman who connects suppliers to local dealers. He’s spent his life staying under the radar and out of the line of fire, but when a massive opportunity presents itself, he takes a gamble that puts him in the crosshairs of several dangerous factions. It’s a story about greed, survival, and the high cost of a "quick score."

• Gritty Artwork: Paul Tucker’s art perfectly captures the seedy, neon-lit corners of the criminal underworld. His textured style and cinematic use of color bring a heavy sense of mood and urgency to every page.

• Premium Format: The hardcover binding provides a durable and elegant presentation, making it a standout volume on any collector’s shelf.
