Description
Sink into this sinful semi-autobiographical neo-noir crime comic with a punk rock edge!
A high-octane crime yarn set in the seedy Times Square peep booths of 1980s New York...
When a chance encounter for Peepbooth worker Roxy Bell leads to the brutal murder of a public access pornographer, the erotic performer and her punk rock ex-partner Nick Zero soon find themselves under fire from criminals, cops, and the city elite, as they begin to untangle a complex web of corruption leading right to city hall.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
"A compelling crime story... sharp and crisp," praises First Comic News, while Comic Bastards notes "Peepland hooked me instantly." SciFi Pulse calls it "an interesting look at crime in the mid 1980s," and Fanbase Press celebrates it as "one of the most exciting, intriguing and explosive starts to a story this year!" The art is described by Medium as "visually appealing and provocative," perfectly matching the comic's sleazy DNA.

About the Author
Christa Faust grew up in the Bronx and Hell’s Kitchen, spending most of her teen years on endless subway rides, cutting school, and writing. She sold her first short story when she moved to Los Angeles in the early ‘90s, and still considers herself an expat rather than a native. She’s an avid reader of vintage paperbacks, a film noir enthusiast and a tattooed lady who writes hardboiled crime fiction.
