From Eric Powell (Eisner award-winning creator) and Tim Wiesch (former bricklayer) comes Big Man Plans: An Expanded Edition. First published in 2015, this brutal crime drama and in-triguing mystery shocked readers with its visceral violence and heart wrenching tragedy.

Big Man is a little person who has been brutalized and abused his entire existence. A person born to be life's punching bag...or so it appears. He just might also be one of the deadliest killers ever trained by (REDACTED). He might also be slightly insane. And when someone he loves is wronged, well, even the most marginalized in society can exact revenge if they don't care how they do it.
