Stringers Summary

Stringers by Marc Guggenheim

an entertaining action alternative for fans uninterested in science fiction and superheroes. - Paste Magazine

Paul and Nick are the guys who shoot the news. Filming car chases, fires, and shootouts in their busted-up rig, they put their (uninsured, unsalaried) lives on the line every night so that the good citizens of Los Angeles can get their daily update. But when a firefight between the LAPD and the MS-13 goes wrong, Paul and Nick find themselves on the run.

From Marc Guggenheim (Arrow) and Justin Greenwood (Stumptown, The Fuse) comes an action-packed new miniseries about crime, corruption, and the perfect shot.

Stringers Reviews

LIBRARY JOURNAL - While the stars of action plots are often lawmen or spies, this time a couple of loose-cog Los Angeles-based videographers come into focus. The sensible Paul plus wild card Nick make an unlikely freelance team who churn out network-worthy city crisis footage despite interpersonal squabbling and edge-bending driving, earning grudging respect from hard-ass news boss Michelle. But when the team blunders into a covert deal between drug dealers and cops-or are they?-both sides want the duo's evidence and their hides. Writer/producer Guggenheim (Arrow) crafts the dialog with up-yours snark, more than matched by Greenwood's (The Fuse) well-designed, kinetic grittiness. Greenwood pulls major drama from the high-octane car chases, and his facial work dramatizes the dark humor of the characters. Hill's color choices-tans through reds, adding blues for certain settings-keep the action striking and clear. For a change, the novel's sound effects are run-on descriptive phrases such as BallsOutChaseAt90MPH rather than onomatopoetic standbys such as VRROOOM. VERDICT The stringers' irreverent exploits will delight both fans of TV police dramas such as The Shield and other readers fond of dirty-edged urban crime with lots of mayhem.-MC
