S.H.I.E.L.D. #2

Inspired by the hit TV series, this 2016 Marvel trade paperback collects S.H.I.E.L.D.: The Man Called D.E.A.T.H., and Julian Totino Tedesco's richly painted cover sets the tone beautifully — a trench-coated figure commands the foreground, gun raised, while a cast of agents and operatives crowd a warm, amber-hued composition behind him, with a jet streaking through the smoky sky above. The ensemble arrangement feels cinematic and lived-in, capturing the organized-chaos energy of a spy organization that operates across every corner of the Marvel universe. A satisfying package for fans of espionage action done with style.
