(W/A/CA) Matt Wagner. In seven chapters* all written and lusciously painted by Wagner* the deadly cyborg Grendel-Prime pursues the past with singular purpose* even while the decadent and decaying world he has forsaken hunts him for reasons of its own. With each chapter a twisted relation to the children's rhyme* "Rich man* poor man* beggar man* thief* doctor* lawyer* Indian chief*" this tightly crafted work is an essential piece of the Grendel canon* and a tie-in to Wagner's popular Batman/Grendel series.
