David Coulson is an agent of destiny and not necessarily a good guy or a bad one. He journeys into dead end bars and makes sure the cards fall where they're supposed to. Leonard is a writer tortured by everyday life, unable to look at people without seeing what they will look like after they die. Celeste is a waitress with a dark social life and Eddie is the wanna-be con man David decides to teach the ropes. Who will live, who will die and why oh why?
One of the only comics in recent years I've read again and again, not because it's impenetrable but because it is layered and complex with meanings that unlock themselves for the dedicated reader.
