Bad Mother

From AWA Studios, Bad Mother (2021–present) is a gritty, single-issue crime comic written by Christa Faust with art by Mike Deodato Jr. It follows a hardened, morally complex protagonist navigating a violent underworld, blending Faust’s sharp noir sensibility with Deodato’s cinematic, shadow-drenched visuals. Though brief, the series stands as a tight, punchy example of modern crime storytelling from a publisher known for creator-driven, mature-audience comics.
