We also get some nice POV panels when one of Roland's old Toff mates is describing how smart piss works. It's nearly enough to put one off of using public toilets. Surely there is a counter gadget for it. Read Full Review
Matteo Scalera delivers some beautifully crafted and detailed images throughout this issue. The action is top tier and visually thrilling. The character moments are filled with great detail. A great looking issue from cover to cover. Read Full Review
King of Spies might be a guilty pleasure, but its immensely rewarding to see the guilty get whats coming to them for a change. Read Full Review
No chill from Millar, we goes there, cause he doesn't give two fucks about it. This truly feels like a world-class spy going beserk and following his gut on bad people that he thinks should die. It's a fucked up sense of vengeance that lives in the limbo between reality and fantasy. Feels like rage coming from within the writer's COVID lockdowns. And Scalera's art is superb as always.
I was a little skeptical of issue one, two was pretty solid and this might be the best one. Really like the series overall.
