Overview

""Colorful and relevant..."" —Slate ""With stunning artwork, propulsive sequential-art storytelling, and a thought-provoking premise, this is truly one of a kind."" —Booklist (starred review) From the creator of the New York Times bestselling series SAGA, comes the three-time, Eisner nominated, PanelSyndicate.com's digital comics sensation THE PRIVATE EYE, finally available in a paperback edition. Set in an inevitable future of where everyone has a secret identity, THE PRIVATE EYE is an eerily prescient sci-fi mystery about an unlicensed private investigator who stumbles onto the most important case of his life. The series is set in 2076, a time after ""the cloud has burst"", revealing everyone's secrets. As a result, there is no more Internet, and people are excessively guarded about their identity, to the point of appearing only masked in public.
