Supercrooks

Mark Millar and Nacho Vigalondo teamed with artist Leinil Yu for this four-issue 2012 Marvel miniseries, a heist-gone-wrong story told from the perspective of the supervillains. Following a crew of superpowered criminals who plan one last job in Spain, it's a lean, pulpy caper that flips the usual superhero dynamic on its head. The series stands as a sharp, self-contained entry in Millar's creator-owned corner of the Marvel Universe, exploring the grimy underside of superpowers with Yu's kinetic, scratchy art.
