Velvet #2

The French edition of Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting's acclaimed spy series arrives with this Delcourt collected volume, subtitled Avant de mourir… — "Before Dying…" On the cover, Velvet herself stands poised and formidable in a black jacket, pistol raised, her striking white-streaked dark hair framing a cool, determined expression against the backdrop of the ARI intelligence agency logo. It's a sharp, moody portrait that captures exactly the kind of sophisticated espionage tension this series delivers so well.
