Back in print and collected together for the first time, this Stone Church Press edition compiles the first three chapters of Jake Kelly’s ongoing DEATH, DESTRUCTION, VICE, & SLEAZE saga: DOOMSDAY MAP, SHADOWS WILL FALL, and IN THE NEW ERA. Torn from Cleveland’s past, these self-contained true crime yarns are a whirlwind ride through the rustbelt’s underbelly: bombings, murder, betrayal… and the wildest burlesque show you could possibly imagine. While most non-fiction graphic novels are little more than illustrated book reports that piggyback on other’s research, Jake Kelly rolls up his sleeves and does the hard work– scouring microfiche, cold-calling witnesses, beating the street… and mapping the connections.
