Slow Burn

In this taut five-issue miniseries from Boom! Studios (2023–2024), writer Ollie Masters and artists Pierluigi Minotti and Matt Taylor craft a slow-burn crime drama set in a small town where a decades-old secret threatens to unravel the present. The story follows a retired criminal who just wants to live quietly, but the past isn't done with him yet. Masters' deliberate pacing and the artists' moody, atmospheric visuals make this a compelling, character-driven thriller that explores guilt, loyalty, and the cost of redemption.
