The Rinse #1 Debuts for Only $1 in September


BOOM! Studios is so determined to part that one dollar bill wasting space in your wallet or purse with a tempting offer. Cough up that dollar and get the first issue of a brand new series. The Rinse #1 is that comic, written by Gary Phillips and illustrated by Marc Laming (covers by Francesco Mattina and Paul Azaceta).

“Gary Phillips is a man that knows crime and with THE RINSE he's aiming for a kill shot,” says BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Matt Gagnon. “Paired with Marc Laming's outstanding and visceral art, this series will knock you down, drag you around and keep your heart racing until the very last word!”

“With the full first issue priced at only $1, this is a deal you can't refuse! I'm telling you, with high-crime at a low price THE RINSE is a win/win.” says BOOM! Studios Marketing & Sales Director Chip Mosher. “And if your go-to guys for crime in comics are people like Rucka and Brubaker, prepare to add one more name to that list: Gary Phillips!”

When a mountain of stolen cash is on the line, can 'Frisco's best laundryman reach the payout before the bullets reach him? It's up to Jeff Sinclair to launder $25 million in stolen casino skim money and evaluate his line of work as purveyor of evil. It's a grounded, gritty look at the world of money laundering in the vein of Elmore Leonard apparently. Yes, the same Leonard currently behind the phenomenal series Justified.

The issue has a Diamond Code of JUL110956 and interiors are joined by the press release after the jump.
