TORPEDO 1972 (2023)

FROM THE CO-CREATOR and ARTIST of EISNER WINNING SERIES 100 BULLETS comes a reimagining of the crime noir Torpedo! MARKETING DESCRIPTION: In the 1930s, Lucas Torelli, known as "Torpedo", was a legend of the suburbs of New York. A tough, trigger-happy Sicilian who only knew how to make friends-anyone else is no longer here to say otherwise. Nearly forty years later, the Big Apple has changed quite a bit. Torpedo, not so much. As a persistent journalist prepares to write an article about the Caputo family, the demons of Torpedo's past resurface, along with his dirty old habits...

Righteous revenge goes wrong when your bad guy is Luca Torelli, the infamous Torpedo! Burned by Torelli's wanton criminality, a journalist exposes his identity to the world. Will the Caputo brothers deliver justice on Wendy's behalf?

When an injury leaves Rascal...(a-hem)...indisposed, Torpedo takes him for a cure and runs into an old acquaintance, the madam Lou. She has a request of him: kill the cop who's swindling her.

Torpedo has his target in his sights, but there are more twists and turns in the work than he expected. When a trap is sprung, there is no clean getaway, but the job (killing a cop on behalf of a madame) still has to be done.

When Torpedo teams up with another career criminal to rob a poker game, what should be easy money gets complicated very quickly. With a lot of mess and little to show for it, Torpedo turns thoughts of revenge onto their informant...

Torpedo's temper-led confrontation with Asshole's sweetheart goes awry, leading to a chase that leads him to the house of the Lord... and then to an adult cinema.
