About the series
Set against the backdrop of a gritty, near-future Coney Island, this six-issue Image series from 2006–2007 follows a youth gang navigating a world of turf wars and neon-lit chaos. Writer Rick Spears and artist Vasilis Lolos crafted a raw, kinetic crime story with a distinct visual energy, capturing the boardwalk’s fading carnival magic and its violent underbelly. It stands as a vivid, self-contained snapshot of early-2000s indie comics, blending punk attitude with noir sensibility.
