商品描述媒体推荐More than twenty years in its construction and worth every moment of the wait, James Vance and Dan Burr's On the Ropes is that most rare of animals, a sequel that's as powerful, as vital and as necessary as the work which it continues. The pair's earlier study of depression-wracked America, the luminous Kings in Disguise, here sees its characters and themes magnificently resurrected in a mesmerising drama which, as surely as its predecessor, nails the era's flat broke beating heart in all its pettiness, its torment and its awesome, overwhelming decency. A quietly epic human tale which beautifully and expertly employs the comic medium in its telling, On the Ropes is very possibly the most affecting graphic narrative that you will read in the next couple of decades. A shabby, footsore treasure that should be required reading here in the approach to our new dustbowl. --Alan Moore
