Summary

An alternative world where prohibition never ended and in fact expanded to include firearms and tobacco.  Twenty years after the fall of Capone and the rise to fame of Eliot Ness comes a new group of Treasury agents named the "Untouchables".  Here, the rag-time bunch of misfits and sharpshooters are out to take their city back.  In this new puritan era, gambling seems to be the only vice allowed by law, so casinos have sprouted up, rivaling the neon-glory days of Las Vegas.  Gun fights, car chases, informants, gangsters, cops, nightclubs and sexy dames galore can be found in this hard-boiled alternative take on the days of the Mob. From Joe Pruett (X-Men Unlimited), John Kissee (MAD Magazine, Raven Chronicles), Chris Dreier (Angel, Crossed)
Available since: 07/13/2016.

    When I am 8 ½ Stone;I will be able to shop in Topshop. I will be able to go swimming and not displace all the water and create a tsunami. I will fit in changing rooms without banging my elbows or exposing the moon of my arse through the curtain when I bend over. I will be able to fit behind the narrow benches at Ronnie Scott’s to listen to jazz instead of being offered a chair at the end of the row I’ll be able to see my toes, which I haven’t seen since 1996 without the aid of a selfie stick. I will be promoted and not have my desk moved to inside the stationery cupboard for being off-brand. “I started writing this book five years ago. I was going through a really hard time – I lost my home and everything I owned – and the only way I got through it was by writing, and making myself laugh. I have always self-medicated with funny books and wanted to write something that made women who might be miserable or cheated on or broke or feeling woefully unsuccessful feel a little better. The book is rooted in my reality: I always felt my life would start and I’d be happy once I reached my target weight. Then I got thin, and life was still rubbish and I still hated my body. I realised true happiness only comes with self-acceptance. So here it is. And I hope it at least makes you smile. And reach for that doughnut.”
