A Calculated Man

A Calculated Man (2023–present) is a crime thriller from AfterShock that follows a former hitman trying to leave his violent past behind, only to be pulled back into the underworld he thought he'd escaped. Written by Paul Tobin and illustrated by Alberto Alburquerque, the series explores themes of redemption and consequence through a lean, tension-filled narrative. Its single issue to date establishes a tight, character-driven story that matters for its focused, noir-tinged take on the genre.
