Vertigo Essentials: 100 Bullets

DC’s Vertigo Essentials line re-presented Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso’s seminal 100 Bullets in a single, oversized issue (2014–present), collecting the core premise that launched one of the most acclaimed crime-noir sagas of the 2000s. This edition distills the series’ signature moral ambiguity and razor-sharp dialogue into a compact format, making the dark, labyrinthine tale of a mysterious agent offering revenge to the wronged accessible to new readers. As part of Vertigo’s Essentials series, it underscores the enduring impact of Azzarello and Risso’s collaboration—a benchmark for mature, visually kinetic storytelling in mainstream comics.
