To celebrate the return of Criminal to print, Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips return to their award-winning title for the first time in years for a 48-page special sure the thrill their readers, old and new alike! It's 1976, and Teeg Lawless is doing 30 days in county jail with a price on his head, his only safe company from the savagery a beat-up old comic magazine his dead cellmate left behind. It's Criminal like you've never seen it before, with a comic within the comic and all those slick '70s thrills!
As an added bonus—and due to the overwhelmingly positive response to the magazine-size variant of The Fade Out—the Criminal Special Edition will also be released in a Savage Edition, a variant in the style of magazine-size comics of the '70s!
