Peter & Paul, a pair of criminals on the run after a Vegas based heist lay low with an old friend turned B-list action star, Matthew, at his rented mansion in the Hollywood hills. But when Mattie’s adult daughter Amber turns up one night, emotions run wild, suspicions fly and it’s anyone’s guess who will make it out of this Neo-noir boiler room alive. Set in late 1960s Los Angeles, One True Love is an evocative, full length crime graphic novel written by Mario Candelaria (Killchella, Tales From The Pandemic) and sumptuously illustrated by J. Schiek (Hush Ronin, Hallowed North). For fans of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’ Criminal series, One True Love is very much in that same vein of gritty, realistic crime thrillers.

The Loot Bag edition was a Kickstarter exclusive, available here for a limited time in VERY limited quantities. It includes a physical, trade paperback copy of the graphic novel (signed by artist J. Schiek), and a signed copy of Uncut Gems, an exclusive zine containing previously unpublished short comics by Mario Candelaria and J. Schiek across their nearly decade long association/collaboration. Each book is packaged in a specially printed, sealed money bag and slip cased in a burlap “loot” sack. Don’t wait on this one! Quantities are severely limited and these will go fast!
