The Good Asian, Volume 1

Pornsak Pichetshote

Writer PORNSAK PICHETSHOTE’s long-awaited follow-up to the critically acclaimed INFIDEL with stunning art by ALEXANDRE TEFENKGI (OUTPOST ZERO)! Following Edison Harki, a haunted, self-loathing Chinese-American detective on the trail of a killer in 1936 Chinatown, THE GOOD ASIAN is Chinatown noir starring the first generation of Americans to come of age under an immigration ban, the Chinese, as they’re besieged by rampant murders, abusive police, and a world that seemingly never changes.

Collects THE GOOD ASIAN #1-4, plus covers by SANA TAKEDA, ANNIE WU, JEN BARTEL, DAVE JOHNSON, and more.

Select praise for THE GOOD ASIAN:

Both important and incredibly fun. Don’t miss it. SCOTT SNYDER (Batman, Nocterra)

A smart, classic noir drenched in style and history. JAMES TYNION IV (THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH, Batman)

A brittle story that takes place during an unfamiliar time in our history that is tragically all too familiar now in our present. BRIAN AZZARELLO (MOONSHINE, 100 Bullets)

Absolutely the best kind of comics noir. KIERON GILLEN (THE WICKED + THE DIVINE, DIE)

The best noir comic I’ve read in years. It’s taut, evocative, and though it’s set nearly 100 years ago, incredibly relevant. G. WILLOW WILSON (Ms. Marvel)

Fantastic. JEFF LEMIRE (GIDEON FALLS, Sweet Tooth)

This is the book I’ve been waiting for. CLIFF CHIANG (PAPER GIRLS)
