Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

You’ve finished the game, unlocked the trophies, conquered the online servers and collected all those golden guns, but have you read the Max Payne 3 comic book?

Rockstar, in conjunction with Marvel, have just announced the release of the second issue of a three part story which joins the dots between previous Max Payne outings and his third Rio-bound adventure.

First issue After the Fall ‘sheds new light on Max’s life through key events from his troubled upbringing,’ with the second issue Hoboken Blues furthering his shattered background. The series is set to culminate with its next issue, while it’s worth noting that each book is not only free but co-written by Dan Houser who also authored the game’s script.
