Black musician Lem Taylor's harrowing journey across the Arkansas of the late 1920s. Reeling from the tragedy that engulfed him at the end of Vol. 1, travelling bluesman Lem flees the scene of the crime even as he copes with the loss of his best friend and music partner. Unfortunately for him, the powers-that-be aren't about to let the murder of a white bootlegger's son go without extracting a pound of flesh from someone. Can Lem escape before his pursuers discover his involvement? It can be compared to Robert Crumb's "Heroes of the Blues" trading cards set, featuring 36 most important and influential early American blues musicians and bands published by Denis Kitchen Publishing. It is also reminiscent of Robert Crumb's "American Splendor Music Comics", published in 1997 by Dark Horse Comics.
