I have to say I'm sorry to see Assassin Nation come to an end. It's been a thoroughly entertaining romp filled with mayhem, murder, silliness, sensitivity, language as colorful as the panels themselves (there was a character named 'Fuck', FFS), and beautifully executed gags. My favorite little extra this time around came while Rankin had Bishop pinned down and was monologuing like a champ. As he says "I just wanted to be the number one killer again" with his gun held reverently to his chest, the background is a giant banner saying "Pettiest Man On Earth" surrounded by flowers and held by a pair of rosy-cheeked cherubs. Overall I truly enjoyed this book, and if it comes back for a second arc I'll definitely be reading! Read Full Review

At the end of the day, if youre a fan of either creators previous work, you really owe it to yourself to pick this series up. Blending John Woo-esque balletic violence with crass humour and action movie excess, Assassin Nation ticks a hell of a lot of boxes, and does so with style. Read Full Review
It delivers with the laughs and the action. Read Full Review
Delightful all the way through. That’s the power of friendship.
Fuck is the best.
