Independent film fans need no introduction to Harvey and Bob Weinstein, the brothers who founded Miramax and its sister company, Dimension. From small, intimate films like sex, lies and videotape and The Crying Game to flashy game-changers including Pulp Fiction and the $300 million-grossing Chicago, the Weinsteins proved smart little pictures (as well as smart big ones) could find a wide audience if promoted properly.

This makes them easier to read, in spite of being printed right to left like the other Dark Horse manga books. Full of satisfyingly graphic violence...
...streets, but the cops won't give up. Absolutely incredible tenacity. The insurgents know that the police are far better at finding them than we are - and they are finding them. Now, if we could just get them out of the habit of beating prisoners to a pulp...
