The Good Asian, Volume 1 Pornsak Pichetshote

Polygon The Best Comics of 2022 List

Writer PORNSAK PICHETSHOTE's long-awaited follow-up to the critically acclaimed INFIDEL with stunning art by ALEXANDRE TEFENKGI (OUTPOST ZERO)! Following Edison Harki, 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.

Collects THE GOOD ASIAN #1-4, plus covers by SANA TAKEDA, ANNIE WU, JEN BARTEL, DAVE JOHNSON, and more.

Select praise for THE GOOD ASIAN:

Both important and incredibly fun. Don't miss it.SCOTT SNYDER (Batman, Nocterra)

A smart, classic noir drenched in style and history.JAMES TYNION IV (THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH, Batman)

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 + THE DIVINE, DIE)

The best noir comic I've read in years. It's taut, evocative, and though it's set nearly 100 years ago, incredibly relevant.G. WILLOW WILSON (Ms. Marvel)

Fantastic.JEFF LEMIRE (GIDEON FALLS, Sweet Tooth)

This is the book I've been waiting for.CLIFF CHIANG (PAPER GIRLS)

The Good Asian, Volume 1 Bewertungen

Rich with history, style, and emotion, Image Comics' The Good Asian delivers noir excellence at every turn. -The AV Club

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

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

Heavily researched and rooted in real life, the result is something that feels brand new and ground-breaking, while continuing to honor the traditions of the stories it draws on, both real and imagined. -Variety

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

The best noir comic I've read in years. It's taut, evocative, and though it's set nearly 100 years ago, incredibly relevant. -G. Willow Wilson, Ms. Marvel
