Some guys have all the luck… but not all luck is good. The award-winning duo behind Coin-Op Comics return with a mind-bending tale of fortune and family.

Some guys have all the luck… but not all luck is good. The award-winning duo behind Coin-Op Comics return with a mind-bending tale of fortune and family.

Imagine a world where Luck, the most ephemeral of ideas, has a physical form. Precious stones of luck, mined like gold, are worn as bringers of fortune. But luck breaks both ways. While the blue gems may grant advantage to those who wear them, their blessing is fickle and unpredictable. In the blink of an eye, good luck can turn to bad. We follow the life of a man who comes into possession of some powerful stones — but the success enjoyed by the father goes awry when he tries to pass this luck onto his son. In alternating scenes between the two generations, The Bend of Luck follows felicity's course, like an arrow, through a family's destiny.

Praise for The Bend of Luck

Praise for Maria and Peter Hoey:

  • "Peter and Maria Hoey are among the very best illustrators in comics." -- Rob Clough, High-Low
  • "It’s far too lazy to describe what the Hoeys do as experimental comics. What they’re doing isn’t really experimental at all, it’s far more perceptive than that… rather they’re realizing the full potential of the form and carefully exploiting its unique possibilities.” -- Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier
