ZANADU RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 2/8/12

THIEF OF THEIVES #1

(W) Robert Kirkman & Nick Spencer  (A) Shawn Martinbrough

Conrad Paulson lives a secret double life as master thief Redmond. There is nothing he can't steal, nothing he can't have... except for the life he left behind. Now, with a grown son he hardly knows, and an ex-wife he never stopped loving, Conrad must try to piece together what's left of his life, before the FBI finally catch up to him... but it appears they are the least of his worries.

From two of Image's most popular writers comes a story that addresses the age old "money can't buy happiness" bit. What is a man to do when he has traveled to the end of his chosen path and instead of finding happiness or fulfillment as expected, there is nothing but the empty feeling of regret; the realization that the very thing he has been running from is what he was searching for all along.
