It’s back to school for Marcus after barely surviving a cartel kill-squad. But he’s about to discover that even hardened teenage assassins aren’t immune to the ravages of broken hearts and breakup notes.
Remender has never let his characters off easily and he isn't interested in happy endings. What he, Craig, and Loughridge are interested in in Deadly Class is something less cathartic, but more significant. It's a tale that no matter how big and crazy it gets is always grounded by humanity. That's why Deadly Class #13 hurts so good. Read Full Review

Rick Remender and Wes Craig, no strangers to madcap action and thrilling double crosses thus far, deliver a whole new level of jaw dropping goodness here in issue #13.

The best thing about Deadly Class is its horrifically dark narration, and that is in short order here. Still, Remender and Craig still tell a damn good story. Read Full Review
Overall, Deadly Class #13 brings the heavy mojo to a good series. And though it might not be the best of the series, it is quite good and a solid standalone issue if you have never read anything in the series before. This one allows you to fall right in and get a feel for what the Kings Dominion School is all about as well as the politics and stories involved regarding the students. Read Full Review
