Andrew Vachss' writing has been described as "red-hot and serious as a punctured lung" (Playboy), "hypnotically violent ... made up of equal part broken concrete block and razor wire" (Chicago Sun-Times), and "short and choppy, like the ticking of a time bomb" (Seattle Post-Intelligencer).

This new digital-only edition collects eleven of Vachss's life-at-ground-zero comics stories, brought to life by an outstanding lineup of the industry's most talented writers and artists. This exciting book also contains a gallery of covers from the original Hard Looks series, as well as a cover by Geof Darrow, award-winning artist and creator of such titles as Shaolin Cowboy, and co-creator of The Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot, and Hard Boiled.
The Hard Looks preview features story pages from "Drive-By" by Joe Lansdale and artist Gary Gianni.
