Synopsis
- Young lovers Tubby and Vim want to escape — escape the mistakes they've made, the lives they've lived, and the dirty city weighing them down. Their plan is simple — all they have to do is rip-off Tubby's pals, the One Tricks, the toughest street gang in LA. If they pull it off, they're set for life. If not, their lives won't matter much anyway!
- Included in the "Deep Cuts" section is a bounty of unpublished and rare work Pope did in the '90s, including the legendary "Supertrouble" manga, created for Kodansha in Japan.
