“Knight Court”

In "Knight Court," Harry faces the fallout of the Reynard fiasco as he’s arrested and investigated, while his son battles complications from surgery. Meanwhile, Bishop orchestrates a daring prison break to free Mazarin, and Cypher pushes forward with his groundbreaking work on mentally controlled cybernetic suits. Written by Paul Kupperberg and illustrated by Tom Grindberg, with inks by John Statema, colors by Julianna Ferriter, and letters by Gaspar Saladino, the cover by Tom Grindberg captures the tension of a world where loyalty and technology collide.
