Deadshot #2

The tag line says it all — "Revenge is the Man Called… Deadshot" — and this second chapter of the five-part "Urban Renewal" arc delivers a cover that crackles with menace. Mike Zeck's pencils and Jerry Ordway's inks put DC's premier assassin center stage, dual pistols blazing as he looms over a chaotic nightclub scene filled with scrambling armed men and fleeing women. With Christos N. Gage scripting and Steven Cummings on interior art, this March 2005 series was clearly swinging for something grittier and more personal than your average super-villain outing.
