Loose Ends FCBD Preview / ICE: FCBD Edition

In 2011, 12 Gauge Comics offered a Free Comic Book Day taste of two distinct crime stories from writer Doug Wagner. Loose Ends pairs him with artist Jose Holder for a gritty, violent tale of a burned-out hitman seeking redemption, while ICE introduces a tense, action-packed world of international espionage. This single issue serves as a potent sampler of Wagner's hard-boiled storytelling and Holder's dynamic, shadow-drenched art. It's a compact showcase of the publisher's lean, mean approach to modern crime comics.
