Scalped
Graphic Novel Summary: Written by Jason Aaron Art by R.M. Guera Cover by Jock Jason Aaron, the hot new writer of the critically acclaimed series THE OTHER SIDE, teams with gritty artist R.M. Guera for an intense crime drama that mixes organized crime with current Native American culture. This special low-priced volume collects the first five issues of the riveting Vertigo series SCALPED. Fifteen years ago, Dashiell 'Dash' Bad Horse ran away from a life of abject poverty and utter hopelessness on the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation searching for something better. Now he's come back home armed with nothing but a set of nunchucks, a hell-bent-for-leather attitude and one dark secret, to find nothing much has changed on 'The Rez' - short of a glimmering new casino, and a once-proud people overcome by drugs and organized crime. Is he here to set things right or just get a piece of the action?

Customer Reviews
This is essentially the HBO series Deadwood, but in modern times, and set in an Indian reservation rather than an old west mining town. It follows Dashiell Bad Horse, a badass dude who’s working for an Indian crime lord. And also the FBI.
It’s really tense, compelling stuff, and though not a whole lot happens in the first volume, I’m looking forward to reading the rest.
