Ex Parte #2

by Bill Williams, Thomas F. Zahler, Thomas Mullin

Extraordinary clients require extraordinary attorneys.Alan Adams is a professor at a sleepy little college in upstate New York. What could Janine Porter possibly want with him? And how does she know all about his alter-ego, The American Athlete? Manimal? Alan wants answers, but Janine is more curious about his career and his personal life. With reality shifting around them, Janine goads Alan into revealing the dark secret behind his "retirement." You won't guess the surprise ending of "Big Man on Campus!"Colorful adventurers and madmen fill the night sky with constant violence. As the dawn breaks and dust settles, there are winners and losers. Many of the losers go into a legal system filled with people like you and me. These powerful beings get an advocate, someone on their side as they face a new series of challenges.Ex Parte (Latin for "for one party") is a series of self-contained, single-issue stories about a lawyer who specializes in defending people who live life behind a mask, whether they are hero or villain. A cross between Astro City and Law and Order, Ex Parte focuses on the behind-the-scenes aspects of the case as well as the courtroom intrigue. Most of the stories are told to the series' heroine, Janine Porter, through flashback, so the readers can see her client's best and worst sides. They lie, they tell the truth. They are funny and tragic. Her cases are as wild and varied as humanity itself. Some clients are guilty. Some clients are innocent. That is for the court to decide.26 DRM-free comic book pages.
