Stumptown

From 2012 to 2013, Oni Press published Stumptown, a five-issue crime comic by writer Greg Rucka and artist Matthew Southworth. Set in Portland, Oregon, the series follows a tough, resourceful private investigator navigating a gritty underworld of missing persons, heists, and double-crosses. Rucka’s sharp, character-driven storytelling and Southworth’s moody, expressive art make this a standout modern noir. It matters as a taut, self-contained pulp thriller that showcases the talents of two creators at the height of their craft.
