Silence & Co GNMedia Release -- Crystal Productions is proud to be soliciting Silence & Co., the new, 176-page, black and white original graphic novel, this March through Diamond Comic Distributors.

When disillusioned Hitman Alexander Maranzano is contacted by the shadowy Silence & Co. to fulfill a contract, what starts off as just another hit quickly turns into a deadly race for answers. From the dusty streets of Marrakesh to the lush jungles of Colombia and back to NYC, Alex's search for revenge and the truth behind Silence & Co. triggers a series of events that alter everything he has ever known. And change the nature of organized crime forever.

Art is by Ron Randall (Alien, Star Wars), letters by Eisner winner John Workman (Thor, Marvel 1985), cover by Eisner winner Steve Lieber (Whiteout, Shooters), and written by Gur Benshemesh (Morgan St. Watch Co.).
