The New York Times bestselling, Peabody, and multi-Eisner
award-winning writer Brian Michael Bendis (Superman) and superstar
Jessica Jones co-creator Michael Gaydos begin a masterful saga
involving art, crime, loyalty, and passion.
Pearl Tanaka's an outsider among outsiders. A Japanese American with
albinism, she was born into a world ruled by the American yakuza. Now
she uses her unequaled skills as a tattoo artist to make a living in San
Francisco, and all that she owes to the yakuza is the occasional
kickback from her shop.
That all changes the day that she meets Rick Araki...and saves his life.
Rick is another tattoo artist, who's run afoul of a different yakuza
clan. By interfering with their hit on him, Pearl risks drawing her
patron into a deadly gang war.
Worse, Pearl has revealed to her yakuza bosses one of her deepest
secrets: she has a talent for killing. Now, to pay off her debt, she
must become an assassin for her yakuza clan.
But Pearl Tanaka's secrets run more than just skin deep...
Collects Pearl #1-#6.
