Aeon/MU Press collects the essential material from the first two issues of the indie series Lowlife, that established future superstar writer Ed Brubaker, plus a story new to this volume.
Slice-of-life stories about petty crime, and Tommy, who deals with the consequences of his weak moral compass and the wrong group of friends. Tommy seeks inspiration for escaping his dead-end job and life from his equally dysfunctional friend Felix; Tommy gets drunk and aggressive during a visit to a nightclub. Pilfering things from work escalates to armed robbery, as Tommy and his friend Peter seek money for their new drug habit.
Stories: Mondo Lowlife; The Last Time Tommy Went to a Niteclub; A Life of Crime.
