"It's a gleeful of literary grindhouse comicthat brings to mind Milligan's Arthouse Pulp and notes of Pretty Deadly. Out inAugust. Pre-order now." -Kieron Gillen
"Dani is quite a discovery: the work is veryinventive and actually very careful but the line is alive and organic-the inkjust spills down and branches into the right places. And the language styleWatters launches here is just wonderful-I summon Milch because it's eccentricand neo-antique like his Deadwood speech, rippling with character and drunkenwith its own pleasure... Coffin Bound is a damned joy." -WarrenEllis
