Garth Ennis And Russ Braun Unleash ‘Jimmy’s Bastards’ At Aftershock
I don't think I'm going to blow anyone's mind if I say that Jimmy Regent, the main character of Garth Ennis and Russ Braun's Jimmy Bastards, bears a striking resemblance to a well-known numerical super-spy with a tendency for brief but passionate trysts. Unlike that guy, however, Ennis and Braun's version is going to be facing some consequences of years --- possibly even decades --- of romantic encounters while saving the world.
And you can probably guess what those consequences are going to be. Not since Hitman, a comic about a guy who kills people for money, has Garth Ennis delivered a comic with a title this literal --- and I genuinely cannot wait to see what he does with the pun names, which might just wind up being unprintable. Check out Braun's cover and the official synopsis below!
