Fresh concepts and characters pop up on almost every page, courtesy of Watters' mind and Dani's art. This is a series to keep your eye on." -Entertainment Weekly "It's a gleeful of literary grindhouse comic that brings to mind Milligan's Arthouse Pulp and notes of Pretty Deadly. Out in August. Pre-order now." -Kieron Gillen "Dani is quite a discovery: the work is very inventive and actually very careful but the line is alive and organic-the ink just spills down and branches into the right places. And the language style Watters launches here is just wonderful-I summon Milch because it's eccentric and neo-antique like his Deadwood speech, rippling with character and drunken with its own pleasure... Coffin Bound is a damned joy." -Warren Ellis "A Lynchian crime chase desert noir fever dream with its own messed up internal logic. Fun." -Rob Williams "An acid drenched road trip, seeping violence and weirdness of the best kind. Definitely one to check out." —Ollie Masters "Gorgeous and odd and very much its own unique monster. I am jealous at its filthy strangeness." —Ivan Brandon "A gore-splattered—but poetic—road trip with one of the strangest stripper scenes in comics." —John Harris Dunning "If you like Dan Watters' work on Lucifer, this is even weirder..." -Neil Gaiman "Dreamlike, mythic, relentless and strange." —Kurt Busiek "Excellent. Like finding a weird Alex Cox meets Jodorowsky road movie you didn't know existed. Literate, full of ideas & complimented by Dani's Guéra meets Pope-ish art." —Iain Laurie "Pure Doom. Watters spins a fantastic Kerouac-Ian fever dream with Dani dropping some story chops, solid gesture and moody blacks. It's a great hook that will take you Under. Coffin Bound Rules!" —Andy Belanger "Your lessons of life delivered at the end of a muzzle by a choir of grindhouse philosophers laced with the wisdom of dead birds. I can hardly think of another story so fully infused with Dan Watters and Dani aesthetic." —Ram V "Coffin Bound is a distillate of madness. A slice of apocalyptic dreamtime cut with engine smoke, acid nihilism and dirty juju. This is some top-class necrofuel, my friends, and you need it in your brain-tank pronto." —Si Spurrier "Coffin Bound is a comic with a strong pulse that bleeds all over your hands while reading. You should give it a read." —Declan Shalvey "So fun! Dani's art is gorgeous (as always!) and Brad Simpsons' colours are ridiculously nice. I just want moreeee." —Emmeline Pidgen "Call your local comic shop now. Make sure they get this for you. Trust me." —Matthew Rosenberg

2025 EISNER AWARD WINNER For fans of Blade Runner, Ghost in the Shell, and Black Mirror, THE ONE HAND AND THE SIX FINGERS is a thrilling graphic novel that will keep you guessing until the very end. Two of the hottest writers in comics — RAM V and DAN WATTERS — have teamed up with artists LAURENCE CAMPBELL and SUMIT KUMAR to tell the most unique crime thriller, now collected in the manner it was intended to be read in — with the miniseries issues as alternating chapters!  THE ONE HAND tells the story of Neo Novena detective, ARI NASSER — a grizzled homicide detective who’s about to retire with an enviable record, until a brutal murder occurs bearing all the hallmarks of the “One Hand Killer”… which should be impossible since Ari already put him away not once but twice in years past.  In THE SIX FINGERS, Neo Novena archaeology student, JOHANNES VALE has always been so very in control of his life. But when he commits a brutal murder using the M.O. of an historic and notorious serial killer, everything begins to spiral out of control… and Johannes doesn’t remember doing it.  What follows is a deadly cat-and-mouse game told through two intertwined narratives. Both men will stop at nothing to unravel the secrets and ciphers of this case- but each revelation only leads further into the dark heart of this future-metropolis.
