Last Gang in Town (2015-2016) Vol. 1 Kindle & comiXology
THE GREATEST ROCK ’N’ ROLL SWINDLE!
It’s 1977, and crime on the once-swinging streets of London is as soft and flabby as an overfed corgi. Nearly a decade has gone by since the brothers Kray were locked away, and it’s high time for the torch to be passed-preferably straight through a bank window. Luckily, a new generation of snot-nosed Robin Hoods filled with attitude, alcohol and anarchy are ready to burst onto the scene. Now, as Great Britain prepares to celebrate its glorious monarch’s Silver Jubilee, a rising gangland queen and her punk-rock robbers are about to pull off the heist of the century-and breaking into Buckingham Palace is only the start!
Acclaimed creators Simon Oliver (FBP: FEDERAL BUREAU OF PHYSICS) and Rufus Dayglo (TANK GIRL) proudly present the punk-noir crime saga LAST GANG IN TOWN-a brash, bold, and bloody brilliant take on the English underworld!

"...garish and gritty in all the right ways."--IGN
"...a throwback to the '80s British comics mixed with '70s underground comics. There's lots of small details added that really make the visuals pop."--Graphic Policy

I loved everything about this book!!
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2024
While I liked the punk aesthetic and music, the drunken angsty rebellion aspect was never relatable. The thumbing of noses at authority because it's authority without another reason or solution just felt like shallow self-serving anarchy. Some minor Tank Girl vibes, but mostly punk underground themes that didn't click with me.

My favorite aspect of this book is that it's set in the punk heyday of late 1970's London, an era I know quite a lot about. It feels great to be in that world and it's clear that the artist and illustrator are also fans of that time period. The visuals are great and the art work matches the fun sometimes silly tone of the story which is about a band of small time hoods who mostly just want to stir things up a bit. Like many comics these days, it's chock full of strong female characters which is nice and which definitely fits in the 'everyone can give it a go' ethos of its setting. I wish they'd been able to get a bit more character arc in there and really get into the characters but it's only Vol 1 (not sure if there are more on the way or not) and perhaps I've grown to accustomed to Image graphic novels. Anyways if you like UK punk or miss 1970s London (less the dustbin workers strike), this is the book for you.
