“Cruel Summer” is the story of the summer of 1988, the final season in the life of Teeg Lawless, but the tale it tells goes beyond his death. It’s just been a ghost haunting the series, as Teeg Lawless has become one of the most popular characters in the comic.” Before we even met Teeg, we knew that he had died when his son was a teenager, but other than the identity of his killer, we have never told the rest of that story. “And one of the big events in many of these characters’ pasts, which has been referenced since the very first Criminal story, was the death of Teeg Lawless. “ Criminal tells the interweaving saga of several generations of families tied together by the crimes and murders of the past,” Brubaker explained.
The result: Criminal stories inform each other in sneaky ways, the same way its characters inform on each other. The stand-alone story arcs about the underworld link together like the suspect photos tacked on an FBI evidence board. Instead of chronicling a central, linear story, Criminal has more of a mosaic approach.
