Racer X #2

The second chapter of this three-part WildStorm series finds Racer X in a tense standoff — the cover by Tommy Yune depicts the helmeted, X-emblazoned hero squaring off against a rugged adversary while a mysterious, long-haired woman wielding a crescent blade looms dramatically overhead, and a third figure watches from between them. Jo Chen's interior art brings the same sleek, anime-influenced style to "The Protege," promising high-stakes intrigue to match the cover's charged atmosphere. A solid 2000 chapter in an adventure that's building nicely toward its finale.
