I am excited to identify an Easter egg already in the title, Bob Dylan’s version of “Baby, Won’t You Follow Me Down,” which I think the media/cultural history-savvy Brubaker has in mind, so listen to it and I urge you to play it if you have a guitar around (you begin in G): As Brubaker says in his afterword, in the old days you might have published them together, with front and back covers for the separate books. In the continuing (2019-) Criminal series, #5, Follow Me Down, we get a story parallel in time to the last volume, The Ghost in You, which saw Ethan Reckless out of town as his assistant Anna solved her own case, and in this one we find out what was happening with Reckless when the last volume was taking place. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() With the help of a Dream Walker-a guardian of the dreamscape, Jonas must face his fears, save his brother, and become who he was always meant to be: Poet Anderson.Īlso keep an eye out for …Of Nightmares, the original soundtrack EP by Angels & Airwaves.
