THEY'RE AFTER ME is a short
comic which pays homage to
old film noir movies as well as
to crime comics from the 1940s
and '50s. The works of Bernie
Krigstein and Alex Toth were
inspirations here. The story was
originally seen in Mr. Jew's self-
published anthology, THE ART OF
CRIME. He drew the black-and-
white art with pen/brush and ink
and colored it in Photoshop
®
,
though today he would probably
do the entire piece on the
computer. "Although it's over ten
years old," he writes, "I still like
the piece. I even went back and
made some minor changes and
touch ups just for this issue of
PERSPECTIVE."
