Pride & Joy by Garth Ennis
SOME DEBTS CAN ONLY BE PAID IN BLOOD Still mourning the loss of his wife, Jimmy Kavanagh lives quietly in the backwoods of New England, raising his devoted daughter and resentful teenage son. But fate has come calling in the worst possible way, as Jimmy's criminal past threatens to destroy his entire family- raising the spectre of his crushing guilt for an old and awful crime. On the run with a pair of unwanted associates from long ago, Jimmy and his children are pursued by a foe so ruthless and lethal that no one will stand between him and his prey. A showdown is inevitable- but does Jimmy still have what it takes to fight for his family's survival? And will his horror at his own transgressions consume him long before the predator on his trail? Garth Ennis (Preacher, Crossed, Battlefields) and John Higgins (Judge Dredd, Razorjack, War Story) present a hard-boiled tale of a man at bay- whose only hope of redemption lies on a dark and bloody path. Garth Ennis has been writing comics for over twenty-five years. His credits include Preacher, Hitman, The Boys, Red Team, 303, Rover Red Charlie and the war series Battlefields and War Story. He has also produced successful runs on The Punisher and Fury for Marvel Comics, and recently revived the classic British character Johnny Red. Originally from Belfast, Northern Ireland, he now resides in New York City with his wife, Ruth.
A cornerstone of the modern comic industry, Garth Ennis is most easily recognized as the creator of Preacher, one of the best-selling graphic novel series of all time. His full list of writing credits is nothing short of extraordinary; his career highlights include Judge Dredd, Hellblazer, The Demon, Hitman, Punisher, The Pro, War Story, and The Boys. Over the past ten years, Ennis has published numerous acclaimed and fan-favorite projects through Avatar Press, including Dicks, Chronicles Of Wormwood, 303, Streets Of Glory, and the wildly successful Crossed series. He wrote and directed his first film, Stitched, which Avatar Press will continue as an ongoing comic book series illustrated by Mike Wolfer. John McCrea is a comic book artist hailing from Belfast in Northern Ireland. Breaking into the comic industry in 1988, he soon partnered with Garth Ennis and gained mainstream success in the American market with such titles as DC Comics' The Demon and Hitman, the latter of which earned the creative team an Eisner Award for Best Single Issue in 1999. A versatile sequential artist, McCrea's range encompasses everything from painted realism to cartoony exaggeration, capturing heart-wrenching drama to gritty action and toilet humor.
