A Modern Orthodox Jew, struggling to pay his bills, is drawn into a triangle of secrets when he moonlights for his best friend, a caterer-turned-criminal wanted by the FBI thanks to their other pal, a failed entrepreneur turned informant.

Behind a backdrop of synagogues and Sabbath meals, three childhood best friends are embroiled in a delicate triangle of crime, cops, guilt, and gefilte fish, when this Jewish suburban crime story comes to an explosive head at a bar mitzvah packed with blintzes and betrayal.

"One of the best comics of 2024. Take a family man strapped for funds and being drawn into a life of crime in an Orthodox Jewish community and you have the baseline of this tale, one jammed full of angst, ethical morality, and the desire to succeed it oozes off the screen."—Pint O' Jon

"4/5 stars. It feels like an episode of 'Breaking Bad' when the writers would seemingly write themselves into a corner, placing the protagonist in an impossible situation, and leaving audiences to wonder how he would get out alive. Kleid has put Jake in a corner and I can't wait to see how he gets out of it. 'Nice Jewish Boys' is a captivating read that should leave readers hooked."—Hank Rea, Lotusland Comics
