GREG RUCKA proudly presents a new direction in adventure with...COMPASS!
Chased across continents, marked for death by Mongol assassins, and betrayed by her sister-in-arms - the odds are stacked against Shahidah... and the adventure's just begun! As Shahi closes in on the fabled Cauldron of Eternal Life, the emaciated and bloodthirsty
Margul Khan rallies his forces in her pursuit. More than just an old man's health is at stake... if the Khan gets his clutches on the prize of immortality, he'll crush the Earth in his tyrannical grip!
The acclaimed OLD GUARD: TALES THROUGH TIME team of writers ROBERT MACKENZIE and DAVE WAL more
I'm also, enjoying the fact that we haven't seen Margul Khan beyond a partial glimpse of his face through the tent that he occupies.

The illustrations in this issue are an integral part of the storytelling. The level of danger and horrors faced by the characters are beautifully conveyed through detailed drawings that often have no narration or speech. And the color work helps solidify the emotional engagement that is gained with the turn of each page. Read Full Review
In Compass: The Cauldron of Eternal Life #2, we learn what is at stake. All the pieces appear to be on the playing field and we are at that wonderful point where everyone is at cross purposes, and we cannot know who can be trusted. Read Full Review
Compass is a thrilling adventure and, if what follows is as good as the start, could become one of the best new Image series in 2021. Read Full Review
The story is pretty good. It does get a bit too crazy at times but the characters are very good. The art by Justin Greenwood is the best part. Overall, I liked this book and I am interested to see where it is really headed. Read Full Review
