10 Best Single Issue Comics Stories You Might Not Have Read

The premise of 100 Bullets is simple enough; if you were offered the chance for revenge without consequences, would you take it? The problem is that's the book is about so much more.

When Agent Graves approaches someone and offers them the attaché case, the untraceable gun and the titular one hundred rounds of ammunition, then it's a safe bet they tie into the sweeping crime saga that underpins the book.

To call any singular part of Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso's masterpiece better than any other would be a disservice to the incredible talents of both men and the book. Issue #11 boils down the story to its simplest parts without getting caught up in the drama of the Grail, The Minutemen and what happened in Atlantic City.

Agent Graves goes into a small diner and offers an overworked waitress the attaché case. What follows is a heart-breaking story of innocence lost and the consequences of a person's actions. The last pages are both cathartic and painful and work as a beautiful introduction to not just 100 Bullets but what the medium of comics can do beyond men in tights punching one another.
