    Richard "Junk" Junkin has always lived on the wrong side of trouble. A former pro football star whose career was cut short by injury (and a nasty gambling problem), Junk now spends his time dreaming of what might have been, selling cars in Jersey and lusting after the boss's unbelievably spoiled, unbelievably sexy and unbelievably rich daughter, Victoria. So when the boss asks him to be Victoria's personal bodyguard while she tears up the New York City club scene, Junk leaps at the chance. But before long, he's finds that Victoria wants a lapdog and not a chaperone, someone who's going to do all of her dirty work—all of it—someone who wants to get filthy rich… From Brian Azzarello, the multiple Eisner Award-winning writer of Vertigo's long-running crime series 100 BULLETS and the smash-hit graphic novel, JOKER, and artist Victor Santos, the creator/writer/artist of the hit French series Young Ronin.

    Because of the Trade paperback to come out later this year, I was thinking why not do a Filthy Rich review.    Brian Azzarello is one of the premier crime comic writers.  He has had a story in Dark Horse's Noir, his own Vertigo series 100 Bullets lasting for 100 issues, great Noir Batman Stories like Broken City, Joker, Batman/Deathblow: After the fire, Wednesday Comics and his current first wave. Vertigo being an imprint that was once known for its magi...

    I am ten years late to this book. I happened upon a first printing of a hardcover Filthy Rich in a used bookstore. I got it for a ridiculous $3.37, rather than its cover price of $19.99, but that was just a bonus to me. I picked it up because it had Brian Azzarello's name on it. I didn't actually know that he had written the excellent 100 Bullets, or Batman: Broken City, or Batman/Deathblow: After the Fire. I learned all that reading Silkcuts' review of this book (thanks, Silk'). But the New 52 ...
