    Fogtown HC (2010 DC/Vertigo) 1-1ST

    1st printing. Written by ANDERSEN GABRYCH. Art by BRAD RADER. Cover by LEE BERMEJO. New from Vertigo Crime! Frank Grissel is a hard-knuckled private eye - and a deeply closeted homosexual - set in the very real world of 1953 San Francisco. Aided by his long-suffering secretary (and sometime live-in lover) Loretta, Grissel's search for a runaway girl winds up with his becoming a suspect in a string of gruesome murders. The case takes twists and turns through the Golden Gate's greasy underbelly: the beguiling arms of a Chinese shipping heiress (and smuggler); an unexpected reunion with the daughter he abandoned long ago; the loss of Loretta to the sadistic clutches of the high-powered "Colonel"; and finally to the horrifying, gender-bending truth. Hardcover, 5-in. x 7-in., B&W. Cover price $19.99.
