Bad Weekend is issue 2-3 of the new criminal but it's confusing as I wonder where the hell issue 1 went. Anyway, this is still great.

So this is a story about a retired comic artist who basically transformed from a kind man to a asshole. So basically Alan Moore. Now that he is crabby and annoyed at life he is forced to go to a comic con with his old assistant, Jacob. Jacob is not enjoying much of his time with his old mentor but he does what he must because of old times. This turns quickly into a crime story and then a sad tale of loss and forgetting.

I really enjoyed a lot of it. The ending is really predictable but the story and the way it is told is near perfect. The emotions run high, the art is fantastic as always, and the way you feel for a asshole like Hal is perfect. I really enjoyed this and want more Criminal from Ed brubaker for the rest of my life. A 4 out of 5.
