review 1: Over the last few weeks, I've read the first four volumes of Criminal. (Actually, I read the individual issues, but it adds up to the same thing.) This is a great series, if you like crime/noir stories. The stories are a *bit* over the top, but not nearly as much so as, say, Sin City. (This volume, in particular, gets a bit loopy near the end.

A great book nonetheless. less
