Donny thought he had it all. A cushy life in L.A. and a brilliant and beautiful girlfriend, Dorrie. While Donny just never seemed to have time for social causes, Dorrie dedicated her life to fighting societal and racial injustice…but crime and corruption have a way of fighting back. Now Dorrie’s dead…and Donny is left behind to take up the battle. It’s the last thing he ever expected, but the more he learns about the shadowy forces that killed the woman he loved, the more determined he is to find justice—by any means necessary. Conspiracies. Corporations. Assassins. Family secrets best left buried. The system can’t stop any of them from taking their bloody toll, but Donny can. All he needs is his fists, his smarts, a little training…and a mask. Because sometimes doing the right thing means breaking the law. He is the Vigilante. How far will he go to set the wrong things right? Collects VIGILANTE: SOUTHLAND issues #1-6, with the first publication of issues #4-6.

Download or read book Hell s Angels written by Hunter S. Thompson and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gonzo journalist and literary roustabout Hunter S. Thompson flies with the angels—Hell’s Angels, that is—in this short work of nonfiction. “California, Labor Day weekend . . . early, with ocean fog still in the streets, outlaw motorcyclists wearing chains, shades and greasy Levis roll out from damp garages, all-night diners and cast-off one-night pads in Frisco, Hollywood, Berdoo and East Oakland, heading for the Monterey peninsula, north of Big Sur. . . The Menace is loose again.” Thus begins Hunter S. Thompson’s vivid account of his experiences with California’s most notorious motorcycle gang, the Hell’s Angels. In the mid-1960s, Thompson spent almost two years living with the controversial Angels, cycling up and down the coast, reveling in the anarchic spirit of their clan, and, as befits their name, raising hell. His book successfully captures a singular moment in American history, when the biker lifestyle was first defined, and when such countercultural movements were electrifying and horrifying America. Thompson, the creator of Gonzo journalism, writes with his usual bravado, energy, and brutal honesty, and with a nuanced and incisive eye; as The New Yorker pointed out, “For all its uninhibited and sardonic humor, Thompson’s book is a thoughtful piece of work.” As illuminating now as when originally published in 1967, Hell’s Angels is a gripping portrait, and the best account we have of the truth behind an American legend.
