Max is not having the best year of his career. Sales on his comics series are tanking, and his personal life is crumbling. Could it have something to do with his double life as a spy? Max learns the definition of "in too deep" as his worlds start to collide.
COVER is a major new project from longtime collaborators and Peabody Award winners Brian Bendis and Emmy-nominated artist David Mack. It's a heartfelt valentine to comics creators, their creations and the genres they inspire.
Bendis and Mack make for an amazing team. They are firing on all cylinders here. I can't say enough about this book. Oh, except that I truly can't wait to read it all together as I'm sure it'll be one hell of a rewarding experience unlike anything I've ever seen. Read Full Review
Cover, in terms of the over-arching narrative, continues to be a slow burn. While one could argue that little of interest happens in this issue in terms of pushing the story towards a natural conclusion, the beauty of Cover is not found in the plot, but rather in the delivery. Read Full Review
