<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Hitman created by Garth Ennis and John McCrea; The Demon created by Jack Kirby; Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, by special arrangement with the Jerry Siegel family."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Written by Garth Ennis, whose comics have been adapted into the AMC TV series Preacher and the upcoming Amazon TV series The Boys, Hitman is an action-packed, often funny series starring Tommy Monaghan, a super-powered gun for hire with a heart of gold.</b> <p/>His name is Tommy Monaghan, and he kills people for a living--but then again, nobody's perfect. In fact, for a hired killer, Tommy's actually a pretty decent guy. <p/>Tommy is good enough at his job that he can pick and choose his contracts and for those that he accepts he follows a strict bad-guys-only policy. Fortunately for him, there's no shortage of lowlifes who fit his criteria in Gotham City's seedy underworld; unfortunately for them, he also has some helpful superpowers--X-ray vision and telepathy--that give him an edge over nearly any opponent, from the lowest street thug to the deadliest super-villain. <p/>Of course, the flashier heroes of the DC Universe take a dim view of Tommy's vocational success. But in the tenements and taverns of Gotham's notorious Cauldron district, honor and friendship are more important than moral righteousness--and professional rivalries are a much bigger threat than the forces of law and order. For Tommy and his crew down at Noonan's Bar, dealing with it all--the capes, the gangsters, the mad scientists, and their mutated victims--is just another day at the office. <p/>Lovingly crafted by acclaimed comics writer Garth Ennis (<i>Preacher</i>, <i>Hellblazer</i>) and beloved artist John McCrea (<i>The Demon</i>, <i>Superboy</i>), Hitman's Greatest Hits collects over 300 pages of gunslinging adventures from Gotham's second favorite local hero--including the classic tales Ten Thousand Bullets, Zombie Night at the Gotham Aquarium, and Of Thee I Sing. <p/>Collects <i>The Demon Annual </i>#2, <i>Hitman </i>#4-7, #13-14, #34, and <i>Justice League/Hitman</i> #1-2.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Garth Ennis has been writing comics for 20 years, initially for British titles like <i>2000 AD</i> and <i>Crisis</i>, then for various American publishers. In addition to <i>Preacher</i>, his credits include <i>Hellblazer</i>, <i>Hitman</i>, <i>War Story</i>, <i>Adventures in the Rifle Brigade</i>, <i>Kev</i>, <i>Battler Britton</i>, <i>The Boys, Battlefields, Dan Dare, 303, The Chronicles of Wormwood, Crossed, Streets of Glory, Dicks, The Punisher, Fury </i>and <i>The Pro</i>.
