Lowlife

In the mid-1990s, Ed Brubaker wrote and drew this three-issue series for MU Press, a raw, black-and-white crime comic following a down-and-out private eye navigating the seedy underbelly of a nameless city. Lowlife stands as an early, gritty showcase of Brubaker's signature noir sensibilities, offering a stark, unflinching look at desperation and moral compromise that would later define his acclaimed work in the genre.
