    (Paradox, 1997)
™ and © Paradox

No matter how hard you try or how far you go, it’s impossible to outrun your past. That’s the lesson Tom McKenna is slowly and painfully learning in this graphic novel by writer and Judge Dredd creator John Wagner and artist Vince Locke. McKenna is an average man, with an attractive wife and lovable child. His life is remarkable in the sense that it is completely unexceptional. All of that changes as he is thrust back into a world of brutality and bloodshed he thought he had escaped long ago. Now he must face his own personal history of violence before his family and new life is destroyed by it. Published by Paradox Press, a subsidiary of DC Comics, A History of Violence is a gangland thriller similar in tone and to other graphic novels such as Green Candles. Due to it’s graphic depiction of violence and adult language, A History of Violence should be intended for mature readers only.
