Media Release -- During prohibition, gangsters grew rich on our vices, and rivalries between criminal organizations resulted in open war. But unknown to the masses, a more sinister power controlled the crime cartels, using greed, gluttony, lust and other sins to fuel a more lucrative trade: mortal souls. Enter Eddie, a mortal who lost his soul long ago.

Caught in the middle of competing demonic families, any other human would've gotten the ax long ago. But Eddie's got a special talent that keeps him on his feet. One man's curse is another man's gift.

THE DAMNED is hard-boiled noir with demons, and the team behind THE SIXTH GUN is bringing it back with new colors, a new format, and a new ongoing tale of tommy guns and hellfire.

Praise for THE DAMNED

"The main draw for the rerelease of this series is the addition of color; though the old black-and-white format suited the noir style of the original, the colorist brought in for the new volume dazzles and gives the story a whole new dimension. This new feature makes the drab scenery even more grungy and grim, which in turns makes the slick, dynamic characters pop against that background. Definitely a series worth rediscovering in this updated package." Booklist

"The Damned is a perfect blend between horror and crime. It takes the best aspects of both genres, bringing them together to make something scary yet intriguing." HorrorTalk

"From an introduction of an anti-hero that complex, to meeting various horned demonic mobsters, and to the typical cast of dames, cheap hoods, and tommy guns that all noir novels are incomplete without, this story grabs you by the face while simultaneously unweaving a complex murder mystery. I enjoyed every second." AIPT!

"This is awesome and I loved this book. [...] Pick this up and enjoy… if you like dark, well written, well-drawn comics then this is for you." Forces of Geek

"The Damned had me by the nose from page one—and that's before a giant demon baby smashed another demon into a bloody pulp." Sean Vanaman (Firewatch, The Walking Dead: A Telltale Game)

"The Damned is like Miller's Crossing...THE RIVER STYX. Bunn and Hurtt artfully weave crime, comics and damnation into a can't miss story that's hard-boiled as HELL." Jason Latour (Southern Bastards, Spider-Gwen)
