CRIMINAL: THE LAST OF THE INNOCENT!
Ed Brubaker said it himself:
This issue will be released in June, the same month as the trade paperback for Incognito: Bad Influences -- the same day, as a matter of fact.
Ed Brubaker is encouraging comics news sites to update their June solicitations, and Marvel's official site has already published pages for both the return of Criminal and the second Incognito trade. The former has a June 1st release date listed, the latter has June 22nd, and I'm inclined to believe that we'll see both on June 22nd.
It's going to be "a few more days," but a two-page teaser will be released for "The Last of the Innocent."
In the meantime, Sean Phillips has published the solicitation, including the first look at the striking cover art, which we've reprinted above.
Brubaker and Phillips seem to do their very best work whenever they really push the boundaries of their Criminal universe -- as with the trio of stories that would become "The Dead and the Dying" and the very twisted "Bad Night."
I can't wait to see where this is going, and we'll be there to cover the new arc from the teaser to preview art, to the reviews and the trade collection.

CRIMINAL: The Last of the Innocent #1It's not what I was expecting -- late last year, the sequel to the first arc "Coward" seemed likely to be the next story to be told -- but I'm quite intrigued by what we already know about this upcoming arc.
By Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips with Val Staples on colors
The best-selling crime comic finally returns, and with their most ambitious story yet. Obsession, sex, money, murder, and nostalgia for days long past all collide in THE LAST OF THE INNOCENT.
Riley Richards got it all… The hottest girl in school and a ticket to the big time… so why isn’t he happy now? Why is he getting involved in gambling and drugs and shady characters in the city? Why can’t he forget the life he left behind in small town Brookview? And why is he suddenly plotting murder?
And as always, each issue of Criminal contains unique back-up features, articles and artwork, which are only available in the single issues.
32 PGS/Mature Content… $3.50
