Seven men, 1 impossible mission - assassinate Hitler! With World War II in full swing, there’s only one way to draw the war to a quick end: kill Hitler. But who would be insane enough to try? Joshua Goldschmidt knows just the men to do it. Insane? Psychotic? Mad? Call them what you will, but the Seven Psychopaths are now the only hope the world has. In the vein of Inglourious Basterds, with art by the critically acclaimed Sean Phillips.
Bret’s pick… “A new book featuring one of my favorite artists Sean Phillips (Sleeper, Criminal),  “7 Psychopaths” channels elements of  “The Dirty Dozen” and “Inglorious Basterds” in a story about the assassination of Adolf Hitler by a group of nutters (7 to be precise).  WW2+Mental Patients+Hitler+Sean Phillips=FUN!”
