Wagner & Ranson’s Button Man now available in French
26th May 2016
“Vous ne pouvez pas quitter le jeu, Harry!”
The first volume of John Wagner and Arthur Ranson’s incredible crime noir series Button Man is now available in this French translation from Delirium publishing.
Through a former comrade, mercenary Harry Exton is drawn into the world of the ‘Button Men’, hired killers pitted against other killers in an underground sport – each controlled by a mysterious ‘Voice’, rich men of great wealth but unknown identity who gamble on the outcome.
These latter-day gladiators must kill their opponent or capture him and take his ‘marker’ by removing one of his fingers; lose three markers and you’re out of the game … permanently.
A ruthless killer like Harry Exton can make even a wealthy man extremely rich, but Harry isn’t happy and decides to quit, only to discover that leaving the Button Man game is not so easy…
