Too Dead to Die: A Simon Cross Thriller

"Guggenheim’s (Last Flight Out) script emphasizes fast-paced, twisty plotting while managing to leave room for several fascinating scenes interrogating whether a superspy such as Cross is of much use in a contemporary world. Chaykin’s (Hey Kids! Comics! Vol. 2: Prophets & Loss) illustrations combine a dynamic pulp aesthetic with dazzlingly innovative page design. VERDICT A thoroughly entertaining, loving riff on familiar pulp characters that raises compelling questions about their viability in a rapidly changing world." —Library Journal
