\"\"<\/a>[ENGLISH] Radical tells us:<\/strong> January 7th, Los Angeles – Radical Publishing is proud to announce that the first printing of fan-favorite writer Rick Remender\u2019s criminal masterpiece The Last Days of American Crime #1 has sold out at the distributor level, with very few copies remaining at a select number of comic and book stores across the country. The Last Days of American Crime is Radical\u2019s newest release featuring Radical\u2019s \u201cBigger Books! Bigger Value!\u201d initiative of 64-page books at a $4.99 price point. Hurry while you can and join the heist of the century!<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Illustrated by the immensely talented Greg Tocchini (Marvel 1602: New World), The Last Days of American Crime takes readers into the world of Graham Bricke, a petty crook never quite able to reach the upper echelon of career criminals. When the American government installs a new currency system using digital charge cards, Graham puts together a grand scheme to steal one of the charging stations to finally hit the big time and live like a king for the rest of his life. As he assembles his team and finalizes his plans, the media leaks news of the government\u2019s intention to broadcast a signal making it impossible for anyone to knowingly commit unlawful acts\u2026in less than two weeks. Now, Graham and his team have a ticking clock to turn the heist of a lifetime into the final crime in the history of America.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026writers must perform a magic act in order to make the reader believe he is reading something new. Well, someone get Rick Remender a top hat and a wand because he accomplishes it in the down and dirty Last Days of American Crime. By infusing a classic noir heist with the tension of modern American politics, Remender gives us a great opening to a comic series \u2013 perhaps even on the level of Criminal or 100 Bullets.\u201d Andy Bentley, IGN Comics<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly proud of the response to Rick\u2019s work, both critically and on the retailer and fan level,\u201d said Radical President and Publisher Barry Levine. \u201cThe Last Days of American Crime is exactly the kind of project we strive for at Radical \u2013 high-concept, engaging and incredibly well-written. As we move into the New Year, we are always appreciative and thankful for the continued support of our distributors, the retailers and our fans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rick Remender adds, \u00ab\u00a0Everyone involved in the project is extremely excited and it shows in the final product. Greg’s work in particular, it’s just nearly unparalleled, he’s been killing himself to make this series special and it’s wonderful to see it paying off.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n
