USAgent #1

This opening chapter of the three-part miniseries puts John Walker front and center in a striking cover by Jerry Ordway and Karl Kesel — U.S.Agent stands in full black-and-red uniform, visor down, gripping an energy-crackling baton in one hand and a golden shield in the other, an American flag and a collage of shadowy figures looming behind him. The image captures the character's hard-edged intensity perfectly, somewhere between soldier and weapon. "The One That Got Away" promises a story with real stakes, and with Ordway handling both writing and art duties, the creative vision here is refreshingly unified.
