PREVIEW: The Fade Out #1 by Brubaker and Phillips

New from Image this August is the launch of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips' latest noir hit, The Fade Out. From Image's solicitation of the series:

And a maniacal studio mogul and his security chief who will do anything to keep the cameras rolling before the Post-War boom days come crashing down.

Here's the first issue cover with fully lettered pages after the break...
