It is a Chinatown noir that follows Edison Hark, a Chinese-American detective, as he investigates a killer in 1936 Chinatown. The story is set during an immigration ban, and the Chinese are besieged by murders, abusive police, and a world that never changes. The comic has received critical acclaim for its stunning art by ALEXANDRE TEFENKGI and its portrayal of the first generation of Americans to come of age under an immigration ban. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 128 pages\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 05 October 2021\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Image Comics\u003cbr\u003e\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePornsak Pichetshote's The Good Asian: A Chinatown Noir\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePornsak Pichetshote's highly anticipated follow-up to the critically acclaimed INFIDEL, with stunning art by Alexandre Tefenkgi (OUTPOST ZERO), is here!
