Book Description

July 21, 2009
The controversial, over-the-top crime-thriller, Back to Brooklyn, is finally collected! Big Bob Saetta made the biggest mistake of his life by pissing off his brother, one of the biggest and most brutal crime bosses in New York City. This is the story of two brothers at war, wrapped in a special package of extreme language and hardcore violence. Join award-winning writer Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Punisher), Jimmy Palmiotti (Jonah Hex, Painkiller Jane), and artist Mihailo Vukelic on an adrenaline ride that rips the roof off Brooklyn's criminal underworld!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the reason I love comics!, September 1, 2009
By 
This review is from: Back To Brooklyn Volume 1 (Paperback)
Having loved The Pro, which also teamed up Ennis and Palmiotti, I knew I had to check out Back to Brooklyn. Turns out this was a good move on my part.

This book has it all; great dialogue, great story and a great amount of violence. Don't take that violence part the wrong way though. This story is smart and has a couple of excellent twists and turns to keep both comic fans and non-comic fans thoroughly entertained from the first issue until the last.

Additionally, after you're done with the comic, there are a pair of articles penned by Palmiotti entitled "What Brooklyn Did to Me." The brutal honesty of these articles are as enjoyable as the comic itself.

If you're looking for a great read and want to know that you're purchasing a book you'll read on more than one occasion, this is the book for you. In case you couldn't tell, I strongly suggest Back to Brooklyn!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tense, edgy and fun for your dysfunctional family, July 17, 2009
This review is from: Back To Brooklyn Volume 1 (Paperback)
BACK TO BROOKLYN is aptly named. This is not the hipster Brooklyn of Williamsburg, nor the stroller-derby that is Park Slope. This is the Brooklyn of families, and none is more screwed up than the story's crime family. Lots of action, lots of love and lots of betrayal. Plus, the art is gorgeous.
