    Written by Rob Vollmar. Art and cover by Pablo Callejo.

    This story is structured like a traditional twelve bar blues song, with three sections each made of four chapters.

    It follows blues musician Lem Taylor's harrowing journey across Arkansas of the late twenties, hunted for a crime he didn't commit. He and his blues companion find a gig in a "juke" outside a small town.

    Their music takes it by storm leading even to a well connected man offering a recording session. However, that night, they accept the invitation of two ladies to go home with them, a fatal mistake, as one of the ladies' lover is a white man who happens to belong to a powerful bootlegging family. The result is a triple murder with only Lem and his lady friend left standing.

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 208 pages, B&W.

    Cover price $24.95.
