Yes, it was co-created and directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, and I will die on the weird poisoned hill that is VALHALLA RISING and its perverse glory. But as far as I’m concerned, the banner for this imminent new series on Amazon Prime is that it was co-created and written by my friend Ed Brubaker, better known to you as the creator of Captain America’s Winter Soldier and the line of CRIMINAL crime graphic novels with Sean Phillips.

Feast your eyes. Give thanks.
