Shadowland: Blood on the Streets #2

The second chapter of this 2010 Marvel limited series arrives with a cover by Francesco Mattina that crackles with kinetic energy — a caped figure in dark blue lunges forward through a hail of spent shell casings and muzzle flash, while an armored, bloodied opponent beneath them fires point-blank into the chaos. Writer Antony Johnston and artist Wellington Alves continue "Blood on the Streets Part Two: On the Edge," promising street-level Marvel mayhem set against the grim backdrop of the Shadowland event. If the cover is any indication, the tension between these combatants is already well past the breaking point.
