Torso by Brian Michael Bendis

A Story of Rochester, Serial Murder, and the Birth of FBI Profiling

A gritty true-crime graphic retelling of the 1930s Cleveland serial killings, following a determined lawman’s hunt for a brutal dismembering killer; the story blends noir atmosphere, period detail and procedural grit to examine police corruption, the limits of forensic science, the human cost of obsession, and the way marginalized victims are overlooked, concluding with unresolved tension about justice and culpability.
