About this listen

From New York Times best-selling authors and illustrators Mike Mignola and Tom Sniegoski come two thrilling antiheroes: Grim Death and Bill the Electrocuted Criminal, battling against crime.

An uneasiness festers upon the city streets, threatening the peace and safety of law-abiding citizens. A war is escalating, and it seems as though the good and righteous are being crushed beneath the unholy weight of evil's onslaught. Organized crime is spreading in an unchecked reign of terror. Until a mysterious agent of retribution rises up from the shadows to challenge the villains. A lone figure, clad in a slouch hat and clothes seemingly stitched from the blackest shadows, masked in the guise of a skull-faced death - a Grim Death - emerges with guns blazing. With him, a wronged ex-con clad in the striped costume of his misfortune - Bill the Electrocuted Criminal.

In this 1930s pulp-style novel, two dark new characters by New York Times best-selling author and comic book writer Tom Sniegoski and New York Times best-selling, award-winning creator of Hellboy Mike Mignola, who also worked on the Hellboy movies with Guillermo del Toro, take to the street to fight the growing infection of organized crime. Grim Death and Bill the Electrocuted Criminal are not your average heroes, but they want justice.

Grim Death may be reminiscent of other pulp heroes like Spider, Batman., and the Shadow in the story that, despite the obvious (to me anyways) homages to these characters, introduces an original character to add to roster of supernatural noir heroes

A book with this title should have personality

I don’t know which was more dry, the story or the narration. By tomorrow I doubt I’ll remember much except there were spirit cries for help and occasional blam blam action scenes that woke me from
day dreaming ….for a few seconds… before it all became white noise again.

Feels like a comic story arc outline

It's not bad. It's just not that good. What kept me intrigued was hoping to see glimpses of the Hellboy universe. That being said, Mignola should hit up Eric Powell to illustrate this as a graphic novel, because it feels like it would fit in The Goon's universe perfectly!
