Cold War

In the paranoid, techno-thriller landscape of Cold War (AfterShock, 2018–present), writer Christopher Sebela and artist Hayden Sherman spin a taut five-issue series about a covert operative whose memories are the battlefield. When a black-ops agent begins to suspect that her own mind has been weaponized against her, she must untangle a conspiracy that blurs the line between past and present. With Sherman’s stark, atmospheric art amplifying the tension, this series is a sleek, introspective take on espionage and identity in the modern age.
