Description

Review
Edison Hark is one of the most intriguing detectives in the history of noir. Pichetshote and Tefenkgi have crafted a brilliant story that sheds light on a dark time in American history while telling a compelling and singular story that is sure to fascinate audiences for quite some time. -Comic Book Resources
Fantastic.-Jeff Lemire (GIDEON FALLS, Sweet Tooth)
Has all the trappings of a noir tale, but also tackles questions of race, immigration, and 'respectability politics.' All wrapped up in a thrilling mystery. -Fortune
Rich with history, style, and emotion, Image Comics' The Good Asian delivers noir excellence at every turn. -The AV Club
What is great about this series-beyond nuanced characters, gorgeously mood-setting art, and an impressively layered story aided by historical consultants on the creative team-is that it's simply a good noir. The tone, the twists, the double-crosses... they would all fit among the best film noirs of the '40s and '50s. This is the kind of textured plotting you might expect from Raymond Chandler if he were writing today. -Thrillist
"This is the book I've been waiting for." -Cliff Chiang (PAPER GIRLS)
Writer PORNSAK PICHETSHOTE's long-awaited follow-up to the critically acclaimed INFIDEL with stunning art by ALEXANDER TEFENGKI (OUTPOST ZERO)! Following Edison Hark -- a haunted, self-loathing Chinese-American detective -- on the trail of a killer in 1936 Chinatown, THE GOOD ASIAN is Chinatown noir starring the first generation of Americans to come of age under an immigration ban... the Chinese - as they're besieged by rampant murders, abusive police, and a world that seemingly never changes.
"A brittle story that takes place during an unfamiliar time in our history that is tragically all too familiar now in our present." - Brian Azzarello (Moonshine, 100 Bullets)
"Absolutely the best kind of comics noir." - Kieron Gillen (The Wicked and the Divine, Die)
Collects THE GOOD ASIAN #5-10
