A classic 1930s Ford two-seater is parked out front, and a man in a pinstripe suit is walking up to the front door. The first brown-heavy panel sets the scene and the tone for the first issue of Kosher Mafia published by Mad Cave Studios. [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There is a tendency in media to make reboots all gritty and serious with an adult edge, as if trying to justify their existence (see the excellent Battlestar Galactica TV series, for example, or the Scooby Apocalypse comic book series). Arguably, however, Dick Tracy was always dark and serious with spontaneous outbreaks of humor and [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Comics and crime stories are a match made in heaven, like Laurel and Hardy, burgers and chips, or Zack Snyder and extended cuts.
