Red-haired secret agent Synnamon dominates this November 2004 prog, rendered in a sleek blue catsuit and wielding a pistol in each hand — spent casings and a dropped magazine scattered at her feet adding a kinetic sense of action already in motion. Ben Oliver's cover art has a confident, stylized energy that makes the cover's promise — "To Die For!" — feel entirely earned. Inside, John Wagner's "Total War Part 9" continues with art by Henry Flint and colors by Chris Blythe, keeping this weekly anthology firing on all cylinders.
