This morning, Hope Martinez woke up dead in a derelict apartment. To make matters worse, Danny, her on-off boyfriend, and the only person she comes close to trusting, lies murdered in the hallway outside.
Shocked and confused, Hope runs, but only as far as the mysterious limousine parked outside the building. Sheltering inside from the cops, the chauffeur tells her the limo is now hers, and she must now go wherever the GPS tells her to collect the sinners.
Before she can find out anything else, the chauffeur opens the trunk and gets sucked in, in a blinding flash of light.
Now Hope is alone, with the limo, the GPS, and the whole of the US in front of her...
The artwork has a stunning, gritty feel to it that almost crackles across the panels and that energy is applied through every page.
-- Gary Watson * Comics Anonymous *Birks takes great pains to construct a believable fictional world in Sinners, laying a solid foundation for the book’s unique internal afterlife mechanics, while keeping the setting and characters real and grounded. It is this skewed sense of the familiar, impregnated with a healthy dose of the weird, that draws the audience in and lays the groundwork for a strong narrative voice.
-- Jason Wilkins * Broken Frontier *Steeped in supernatural weirdness, Sinners might be a competitor for the seminal Hellblazer.
-- Dominic Cuthbert * Starburst Magazine *Stewart has a cinematic style that makes the book feel a bit like Reservoir Dogs, a sort of psuedo-noir that yields to the moodiness of the plot.
