YEAR ONE

(W) Garth Ennis (A) Russell Braun (CA) Russell Braun

Jimmy Regent, Britain's number one super-spy, has got it all: intrigue, adventure, a li-cense to shoot whoever he likes and beautiful women falling at his feet. He also has a new partner who isn't quite as impressed by him as all other women appear to be. But now there's a price to pay for Jimmy's multiple romantic conquests - the results of which are about to come calling in the worst possible way... With Jimmy triggered into his safe space by the ghastly revelations of his evil progeny, his part-ner Nancy discovers the truth behind our hero's gruesome fate - but as Jimmy bounces off the walls of a good old-fashioned rubber room, Nancy realizes she's going to have to handle the bad guys solo. Or is she? And is there one final secret from Jimmy's past that might even shock the ever-unimpressed Nancy to her core...? Written by Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys, A WALK THROUGH HELL) and drawn by Russ Braun (The Night Witches, Where Monsters Dwell), this complete collection of JIMMY"S BASTARDS con-tains all nine issues of high octane, nose-thumbing, boundary-buggering super spy action!

In Gotham City, where heinous acts of violence are a daily occurrence, the GCPD relies on Harley Quinn, a young forensic psychiatrist and profiler, to consult on their toughest cases.

Five years later, the case remains unsolved and a new series of horrific murders occur throughout the city. As the murders escalate, Harley's obsession with finding the depraved psychopath responsible leads her down a dangerous path. When the past and the present finally collide, Harley has to decide how far she is willing to go-and how many lines she is willing to cross-to solve these cases once and for all.
