Just pummeled through the story campaign on this bad boy. Detailed impressions are soon to follow, of course, but I can safely say this is one of my favorite video game experiences yet this year. The tale Rockstar weaves is darkly engaging, uncomfortably current, and utterly brutal.

Check out Max Payne 3, thanks for listening, and sorry for pulling you away from Diablo, folks.

The comic also explores Max’s early years as a chain smoking toddler solving macabre playground related murders (I can only assume).
Produced in conjunction with Marvel and Rockstar, you can view the entire first hardboiled issue online or enter to win a physical print of the funny-book, as Rockstar will be relinquishing ten copies every week leading up to July 12th.
