Last Gang in Town Vol. 1 by Simon Oliver

Forget what you know of England, of the "Land of Hope and Glory." Instead, try damp and depressing, and embrace this miserable island for what it is. Our story kicks off in 1976: the country coming apart at its flared corduroy seams, a decade after the Great Train Robbery, when British crime has gone decidedly soft in the middle. Time for a new generation of criminals to rise: a band of snotty-nosed heroes driven by destiny and cheap cider, who will strike fear back into the establishment, put art back into crime and crime back into art, and pull off what will become known as the heist of the century. Collects LAST GANG IN TOWN #1-6.
"..garish and gritty in all the right ways."--IGN

"...a throwback to the '80s British comics mixed with '70s underground comics. There's lots of small details added that really make the visuals pop."--Graphic Policy
