It's the most important case of private detective Will Profane's life–solve the murder of Spud Coltrane. But this isn't just any murder case; Coltrane is an author. The author famous for creating the fictional character… Will Profane! With the death of his author being all-too-real, where does that leave his unwritten destiny? The main suspects: Spud's professional rival, Ken Kane, Lili Macbeth–the beautiful nightclub singer who desires eternal youth through fiction–and Red Glove, Profane's bonafide nemesis who is determined to escape his tormented existence of losing to Will again and again. However, even if each suspect gets crossed off the list, a wildcard connected to Coltrane from the world of Non-Fiction could end up as the fly in Profane's ointment if he's not careful… Discover the reality-shattering mystery thriller from legendary writer Peter Milligan (Hellblazer, Venom VS. Carnage), and veteran artist Raül Fernandez (Detective Comics, Justice League Dark), walking the thin line between reality and fiction. Collects Profane #1-5.
