Local Man Deluxe Hardcover - by Tim Seeley & Tony Fleecs

Book Synopsis

"A thought-provoking send-up to one of comics' weirdest eras, and if you're not reading it right now, you are absolutely missing out." --ComicBook.com

STRAY DOGS creator TONY FLEECS teams with REVIVAL's TIM SEELEY for a wildly critically acclaimed story that combines rural crime noir and superhero action.

Once, JACK XAVER, star recruit of the media sensation super-team THIRD GEN, had it all. But when controversy sends CROSSJACK crawling back to his mom and dad's basement in the Midwest, Jack struggles to fit into a world he left far behind. And then the bodies start piling up. Now, the small town hero known as "Local Man" must investigate a sprawling conspiracy while navigating former teammates, local law enforcement, interdimensional crossovers, a geriatric dog and the girlfriend who stayed behind.

Collects issues 1-13, 25, and the GOLD and BAD GIRLS one shots.
