Story and Art by Robert Roach. Cover by J.H. Williams III. Chicago. The Prohibition era. The South Side. As gangs fight over and die for turf, a nefarious group, The Cause, begins its rise. They rise by killing their competition and taking over the business. They rise because they have a committed group of zealots ready to die for "The Cause." They rise since they don't "play by the rules." And The Cause is just a stone's throw away from covertly gaining control of Chicago's underworld and political apparatus. The Cause seems unstoppable. Until the South Side's self-appointed guardian gets involved. Until the anonymous anti-hero decides that enough is enough. Until the detective/assassin known only as The Roach resolves to exterminate The Cause. 32 pages, B&W. Mature Readers. Cover price $2.95.
