Tom King is a comic book writer and novelist, best known for his work at DC Comics including GRAYSON and OMEGA MEN. He often relies on his experience as an ex-CIA agent and experiences during the recent conflicts in the Middle East in his writing, especially apparent in GRAYSON (alongside co-writer Tim Seeley), OMEGA MEN and in SHERIFF OF BABYLON, published under the Vertigo imprint.
Baghdad, 2003. The War on Terror has been raging for two years. Iraq's capital city has been devastated, and without a police force to keep its citizens safe. In an effort to establish some semblance of order in the war-torn city, Florida cop-turned-military consultant Chris Henry has been assigned to train a new group of cadets who will take up the cause of law enforcement. But even those with good intentions are not immune to the chaos found in the post-9/11 Middle East.
When one of Henry's trainees is found dead, he's forced to align himself with Nassir, the last policeman in Baghdad to try to unravel the bloody mystery that's already claimed one life. While Henry and Nassir search for answers there are forces in the shadows pulling strings that these men don't even know they're tied to.
With a wonderfully brutal script by Tom King (GRAYSON, THE OMEGA MEN) and devastatingly beautiful art by Mitch Gerads (The Punisher, The Activity), this wartime crime crama takes you deep into the underworld of the city of Baghdad in one of the most tumultuous times in modern history.

評分神作!神作!
評分有時讀著很混亂!
評分這部作品很好地解答瞭電影和漫畫的區彆。分鏡、色彩、節奏,都更驚人。畫傢Mitch Gerads和作傢Tom King,應該是結閤自身經曆,很少見地以現實為題材講述瞭在2004年巴格達被美軍攻占後不到一年的這個時間點裏,涉及到占領軍,臨時政府籌備組,恐怖分子,薩達姆政權遺留人員,軍事外包公司等多方勢力的混亂環境裏,本身並不那麼復雜的罪案故事,並給瞭很開放的結局。第一部節奏是有點慢的,但細節很暴力很寫實...
