Charles "Lucky" Luciano was once characterized as the “greatest gangster” threat to New York and America at large. His sinister celebrity catapulted him from a virtually unknown gangland hood to international infamy in 1936. Lucky would become the scarred, sullen face of America’s underworld, the poster boy for the mob’s wretched affect on civil society.
The provocative and colorful true tales of Lucky Luciano are brought to life by award-winning crime historian/writer Christian Cipollini (Diary of a Motor City Hitman, Lucky Luciano: Mysterious Tales of a Gangland Legend) and illustrator Yevginey Frantsev(Frontier, Sokol) in this compendium of the entire four part true-crime comic book series LUCKY.
LUCKY collects for the first time in printed form, the complete four part true-crime series that follows Luciano's story from surviving the grimy streets of New York's lower east side, to a posh penthouse in Midtown Manhattan, to a the dank of confinement of prison.
LUCKY is a full-color, 146 page book which includes the original comic along with true-crime bonus features such as articles, historical photo collages, pinups, and more. It is available as a trade paperback or hardcover with Kickstarter Exclusive variant cover art.
LUCKY is available in three formats. A digital edition in PDF and Kindle Panel View ($15), a standard paperback ($25), and a hardcover with Kickstarter Exclusive cover art ($45). The paperback and hardcover editions include access to the digital version and unlock exciting bonus add-ons!
