A review by geekwayne
Pray for Rain by Ed Brubaker

3.0

In 'Fatale, Vol. 4: Pray for Rain,' a beautiful woman with amnesia is found by a group of grunge musicians in mid-90s Seattle. Who is this strange woman and why are men so attracted to her?

The band Amsterdam has had one big hit. They're looking for their next hit, but their writer has no inspiration. When one of the band finds Jo and brings her home, she brings her own death and destruction, whether she remembers or not. The band finds a new song, but the cost might just be too high.

I live in the Seattle area, so I liked the setting. The band seemed like some of the local bands of the time might be. The story feels like a set up for the next volume as a lot of pieces seem to be moving into place. Ed Brubaker writes a good dark story and art by Sean Phillips gives rainy Seattle a noir feel. I'm looking forward to seeing how this series finishes.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
