David and Maria Lapham- the Eisner Award-winning creators behind STRAY BULLETS- redefine the noir with THE DETECTIVE. Deftly combining the master worldbuilding of both Ridley Scott's BLADE RUNNER and the Wachowski's THE MATRIX with the intricate storytelling of Roman Polanski's CHINATOWN- and the groundbreaking visuals of Jack Kirby's FOURTH WORLD- the Laphams deliver a seminal neo-noir sci-fi epic. It's a cold morning in The City when Valencia Vallez wakes up in an unfamiliar bed with a revolver in her hand and a dead body at her side. She doesn't remember how she got there. She doesn't remember much of anything. Just the long list of names buzzing around her head--suspects in the brutal gangland execution of her husband. Lucky for her- Val's a homicide detective. The only trouble? In the City- so is everyone else. Val's hunt for answers has painted a target on her back. Caught between the crooked cops hot on her tail and the towering mechanical Judges looming over the City's rain-soaked streets- every lead Val runs down only raises more questions. What secrets lie hidden in Val's missing memories? Who is the Mastermind? In The City- the truth doesn't come easy. And when it does- you’ll wish it hadn't.
