Gotham Central #8

Aug 2003 · DC · 2.50 USD; 4.25 CAD
“Half a Life Part Three”

In "Half a Life Part Three," the investigation into Detective Montoya takes a devastating turn when Marty Lipari's body is discovered, and her service revolver is found at the scene—along with a half kilo of heroin that's gone missing. With the evidence pointing squarely at her, Internal Affairs moves in, arresting Montoya at her own apartment where the stolen drugs have been planted. Written by Greg Rucka and illustrated with sharp precision by Michael Lark, this tense installment of Gotham Central pulls no punches in exploring the weight of suspicion and the fragile line between justice and betrayal. The cover, also by Michael Lark, captures the grim atmosphere of a city where trust is as scarce as answers.
