Minor Threats Library Edition Volume 1 HC
The hit creator-owned comic series from Patton Oswalt and Jordan Blum, showrunners of Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K on HULU and and superstar artist Scott Hepburn (Tom Morello’s Orchid), comes this graphic crime drama about superheroes and villains and the last gasp of the colorful innocent days of the silver and bronze age before they’re dragged into the grit-soaked modern era. Minor Threats is now optioned for adaptation on Netflix and this debut library edition collects the first two series in a deluxe hardcover format.
Minor Threats volumes 1 and 2 witnesses the rise and fall of Twilight City's first costumed criminal queenpin Playtime a.k.a. Frankie Follis.
A second-generation supervillain, Frankie is looking for a fresh start and to escape the life of crime that was thrust upon her since childhood. But when The Stickman, Twilight's a-list villain, kills the sidekick to its a-list hero, The Insomniac, all hell breaks loose. No one feels it more than the blue-collar d-list hoods who are being rounded up by the Insomniac's superhero teammates on The Continuum, turning the city into a police state. Frankie decides to seemingly put on the mask one last time, assembling a team of fellow bottomfeeders as they venture out on the most dangerous night of the year to collect the bounty on the Stickman's head and bring him down themselves.
