In a way, it’s about second chances, both the story and the story about the
story.

The new Tom Hanks movie Road To Perdition is based on a
graphic novel by long-time Dick Tracy scribe Max Allan Collins and artist
Richard Piers Rayner, and it’s now back in print from DC Comics’ Paradox Press
imprint. If you missed this powerful, compelling story before, here’s a chance
to rectify that mistake. The new edition of Road To Perdition retails for
$13.95 – and it’s a page-turner in the grand tradition of classic crime
novels

Known as the writer of Ms. Tree, Wild Dog, and the
Nathan Heller novels, and as the writer/director of Mommy and Mommy’s
Day
, Collins is also widely noted for his many novelizations – including
In The Line of Fire, Air Force One, and now Road To
Perdition
. That’s right, Collins has written the novelization of the film
based on his own graphic novel. We can’t think of too many times that’s
happened!
