When you’re sitting next to a blonde ladykiller and you’ve got a dead body in the trunk and you’re violating your parole big-time, there’s only one way to go, hombre: south of the border. But you can’t sit in a cheap Mexican resort slamming tequila and watching Chinese tourists square dance all night long. You’ve got to deliver that body to the one shady man who can hide it forever. Problem is, it looks like the garbage man is sizing you up for a grave of your own! If you thought Cody Pomeray tripped into his own personal hell in the first three issues of EX-CON, you’re not going to believe where he ends up next…

Cody Pomeray’s violated his parole. He’s cuffed and headed back to the place he dreads the most — the slammer. He’s dead if he shows up without having completed a little “errand” for a vicious crime boss. But then Cody is given just 48 hours to set things right — and he has no choice but to join forces with his ex-girlfriend to track down an arsonist hiding somewhere along the California coast.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Once Cody Pomeray had L.A.’s elite eating out of his hand; now he’s sucking grime from the bottom of their pools. But that’s just his parole gig. His real job? Sneaking away from the watchful eye of Quemando – his hot parole officer – and scouring the bars of Venice Beach with to find an arsonist who’s been torching pads all over town. Then Cody walks into the wrong condo, and dreams of freedom pretty much go up in smoke.

Dynamite is proud to present Ex-Con, the next book in a series of creator driven comics – with The Creators Unleashed, featuring all new concepts and characters from the industry’s best and brightest! This month, we present Ex-Con, written by Duane Swierczynski (Cable/Deadpool. Judge Dredd)! 1985: L.A. con artist Cody Pomeray had a gift for looking inside a mark’s soul with just a glance. But one fateful night, he targeted the wrong man — and was sentenced to the most savage prison in California. Pomeray would have been beaten to death on his first day if not for the intervention of Barnaby Creed, the most powerful crime lord in the Southland… 1989: Now Pomeray’s out on parole, robbed of his special ability and tasked with doing Creed “a little favor.” He has no idea he’s just stepped into a long con, and this time, *he’s* the mark…
