Old Dog #2

Declan Shalvey does it all on Old Dog #2 — writing, drawing, inking, and coloring a cover that immediately earns your attention: a lone, silver-haired operative crouches atop a rooftop wall, binoculars raised, surveying a sprawling sun-baked city of tightly packed buildings stretching toward distant mountains. The warm, dusty palette and careful vantage point capture the quiet tension of a seasoned professional at work, setting the mood for the "Extraction" story within. With lettering by Clayton Cowles rounding out the creative team, this 2022 Image series already feels like a sharp, assured piece of espionage comics craft.
