The Saga of the Bloody Benders by Rick Geary
Yowza this one was so weird! I got a taste of this in [b:The Best American Comics 2008|3427455|The Best American Comics 2008|Lynda Barry|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1403261824s/3427455.jpg|3468318], and I finally got to read it in [b:A Treasury of Victorian Murder Compendium II|22180677|A Treasury of Victorian Murder Compendium II Including The Borden Tragedy, The Mystery of Mary Rogers, The Saga of the Bloody Benders, The Case of Madeleine Smith, The Murder of Abraham Lincoln.|Rick Geary|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1400962194s/22180677.jpg|41528409]! The Bloody Benders were a family of serial killers living in southern Kansas in the early 1870s. They opened up a store and then just killed a bunch of people! They were set up along a major route and would just kill people as they were traveling along! For YEARS!
All of Rick Geary's murder stories really confirm that living now is kind of the best in terms of crime solving. People could get away with so much! You could just get on a train and disappear! It makes me think of that John Mulaney joke about the old timey detective. Ack.
