Ep. 28: Book Club - Dead Eyes, vol. 1, with Kevin Ohrenberger

Graphic Novel Apostle, Mark Ohrenberger

On this week's Book Club episode, the GNA's dad, Kevin Ohrenberger, joins the show to discuss the exciting, brutal, and humorous anti-hero tale, Dead Eyes, vol. 1. Family medical debt (and maybe boredom with ordinary life) brings Boston's legendary criminal from the 1990s, who is known as Dead Eyes for this black mask with red XXs over his eyes, out of a twenty-year retirement and back into the bank robbery game. Unfortunately for Dead Eyes, a top Boston mod boss has been waiting these many years for the robber to resurface. Fortunately for Dead Eyes, the situation might just present an opportunity to get his hands on a treasure trove of dirty money. This episode covers volume 1, which consists of series issues 1-4.

Oh, and what I kept calling a table saw was a circular saw. My bad.
