Matt Fraction writes comic books out in the woods and lives with his wife, writer Kelly Sue DeConnick, his two children, two dogs, a cat, a bearded dragon, and a yard full of coyotes and crows. Surely there’s a metaphor there. He's a New York Times-best-selling donkus of comics like Sex Criminals (winner of the 2014 Will Eisner Award for Best New Series and named TIME Magazine's Best Comic of 2013), ODY-C, and Casanova. Under their company Milkfed Criminal Masterminds, Inc., Fraction and DeConnick are currently developing television for NBC/Universal.Gabriel Bá is a writer, Penciller, Inker, Colorist, Letterer, and cover artist in the comic book industry. Some of his work includes American Vampire, B.P.R.D., Pixu, The Umbrella Academy, Casanova, and Ursula. He is Twin brothers and long time collaborator with Fábio Moon and lives in São Paulo, Brazil.

There's a way of making a complicated multiple-realitysci-fi spy story that works, and Fraction (Sex Criminals, Hawkeye) has certainlyfound it. Rather than move the plot forward with painstaking precision,gradually establishing the magnitude of it all, Fraction serves it up at anabsolutely screaming pace, trusting the reader to see the hectic art mirroringthe unfolding events.. The eponymous Casanova Quinn finds himself kidnapped intoa parallel universe, where he must work at the behest of the forces of evil inorder to bring down EMPIRE, an organization dedicated to international lawenforcement headed by his own father. Keeping everything straight is a challengefor Quinn, and on more than one occasion he thinks he's losing his mind. Thefrenetic line work of Ba (The Umbrella Academy, Daytripper) is just what thenarrative needs, especially when accompanied by the excellent coloring of CrisPeter, using a very selective palette. The reader will also appreciateFraction's supercool touches, such as popping God into the margins to explainwhat's happening. -- Publishers Weekly
