☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis omnibus collects the second half of Matz and Luc Jacamon's acclaimed crime saga, following the coldly professional hitman as he navigates the fallout from his botched Paris job and attempts to disappear into a new life in South America. The volume includes the story arcs 'Modus Vivendi' and 'The Game of the End,' continuing the series' gritty, philosophical exploration of violence and consequence.
In "Chapter Six Modus Vivendi [Part 1]," the Killer, still haunted by his mysterious assignments, takes a rare pause to reconnect with his four-year-old son in the jungle—a quiet, tense respite that underscores the cost of his life. Returning to the world he’s learned to navigate with cold precision, he makes a dangerous gamble: reaching out to a government minister, offering secrets in exchange for protection. Written by Matz and Edward Gauvin and illustrated with haunting detail by Luc Jacamon, this chapter blends intimate fatherhood with high-stakes survival, all rendered in Jacamon’s distinctive, atmospheric style. Cover by Luc Jacamon.
The Killer, back from a four-year break, steps back into the world of contracts with a quiet confidence—until his third job pulls him into something unexpected: a hit on a well-known nun. As he digs into the reasons behind the target, the usual precision of his work begins to falter, and the quiet life he left behind starts to echo in ways he didn’t anticipate.
In "Chapter Six Modus Vivendi [Part 2]" from The Killer Omnibus #2, The Killer takes a rare pause from his deadly work, spending weeks in the jungle with his four-year-old son, hunting and reconnecting in the quiet. Returning to the world he’s learned to navigate with precision, he makes a calculated move—reaching out to a government minister, offering secrets in exchange for protection, setting a fragile new balance in motion.
In "Chapter Seven Ordinary Mortals [Part 1]" from The Killer Omnibus #2, the assassin finds himself in Cuba, where his mission takes an unexpected turn. Rather than carrying out the kill, he attempts to negotiate with Cuban authorities to shield his target, stepping into a tense and unfamiliar moral gray zone.
In "Chapter Seven Ordinary Mortals [Part 2]," The Killer navigates the tangled web of loyalty and betrayal after an intimate connection with his Cuban contact, Katia, leads to a carefully orchestrated disappearance. As he returns to Venezuela, the quiet acceptance of his payment soon gives way to a chilling pursuit of the men who hired him—only to find they’ve already fallen to a ruthless Cuban hit squad.
In "Chapter Eight: The Natural Order of Things [Part 1]," The Killer moves through his latest assignments with quiet precision, each job a step further from the chaos he’s trying to outrun. As tensions rise in Venezuela, his friend Mariano brings word that could unravel the deeper threads tying Cuba to the conflict—just as The Killer begins to wonder if he’s been playing a role in a game he never agreed to.
The Killer travels to Montreal with Mariano, seeking distance from the chaos of Venezuela. There, he quietly aids Mariano in resolving a series of tense, unresolved matters—each task a step deeper into the city’s undercurrents.
