Synopsis
Comedy is hard…but dying is easy! From the New York Times bestselling author of Locke & Key comes this graphic novel mystery! Meet Syd “Sh*t-Talk” Homes, a disgraced ex-cop turned bitter stand-up comic turned…possible felon? Carl Dixon is on the verge of comedy superstardom, and he got there the dirty way: by stealing jokes. He’s got a killer act, an ugly past, and more enemies than punchlines. So when someone asks Syd Homes how much it would cost to have Dixon killed, Syd isn't surprised in the slightest. But, once he’s accused, he’s on the run and it’s going to take all of his investigative chops to suss out the real killer before he gets caught. This crime thriller by writer Joe Hill and artist Martin Simmonds follows in the tradition of fair-play mysteries, inviting readers to solve the murder before Syd does! This edition also includes “ ‘Rache’ is German for Revenge,” a new, 11-page Syd Homes mystery, in glorious black-and-white. Originally produced for In League with Sherlock Holmes, it appears here as part of the Dying is Easy collection for the first time. Last but not least comes an introduction from Mystery Writers of America’s 1994 Grand Master, Lawrence Block, reflecting on cops, comedy, and crime.
