Bicycle Cop Dave Rolls Again
by Gary Phillips
Well sports fans, the second installment of the mystery webcomic Bicycle Cop Dave, illustrated and lettered by the very talented Manoel Magalhães, will be rolling your way on Wednesday, June 2 right here on fourstory. Set in a downtown Los Angeles where gentrification displaces the working poor, where loft dwellers walk their little dogs past dark alleyways from which the sickly sweet smell of something else wafts, police officer David Richter patrols this mixed area on his trusty bike.
Some of you might be saying, who the hell is Dave? Well, like the recently concluded Lost, Dave's adventures include odd situations and characters - a crack smoking crooked lawyer, a preacher with more than the gospel on his mind, the dangerous Genghis Rabbit, a downtown power broker with a secret agenda (is there any other kind?) and a crazed homeless former architect who just might have all the answers.
But unlike the aforementioned television saga, all will be explained...eventually. For now, you can come on over and read the first installment to catch up then see what's currently up with our man, Bicycle Cop Dave.
