Jew Gangster

Joe Kubert’s Jew Gangster (2005–present, ibooks) is a single-issue graphic novella that explores the rarely examined intersection of Jewish identity and organized crime in early 20th-century America. Written and illustrated entirely by the legendary Joe Kubert, this stark, character-driven story draws on historical figures and a gritty, period-authentic visual style. Though brief, the work stands as a powerful, personal meditation on heritage and survival from one of comics’ most revered storytellers.
