Part of DC's New 52 initiative, this second issue of Katana's solo series drops her straight into a rain-soaked confrontation with the Sword Clan assassins. David Finch's cover captures her front and center — white headband, red circle, ornate blade gleaming — while a ring of robed, weapon-wielding warriors closes in around her from above and behind. With Ann Nocenti writing and Alex Sanchez on interior art, "Hire Your Enemy" promises exactly the kind of fierce, blade-to-blade tension that the cover so vividly telegraphs.
