100 Bullets: First Shot, Last Call
By: D. Ozaydin

“Isn’t it obvious, Dizzy? They’re the bad guys."
-Agent Graves, First Shot, Last Call

                There’s a certain uniqueness to the comic series 100 Bullets especially in the world of American comics, which are more often frequented by superhero stories that never have an ending. Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso’s stories seem as though they would be more common to see in a theater, because of their dark, modern drama. The series has been called crime, conspiracy, and neo-noir, but it’s probably best to just say that it is all of these things.
                The first couple issues of 100 Bullets tells the story of young ex-gang member Dizzy Cordova. She was arrested, and while she was in prison some drug lords killed her husband and child in a drive-by. She is now out of jail and that was when she met the enigmatic Agent Graves.
