The Killer: Modus Vivendi

A six-issue series from Archaia Studios Press, The Killer: Modus Vivendi follows the titular professional assassin as he attempts to build a new life away from violence, only to find his past inescapably pulling him back. Written by Matz and Edward Gauvin with art by Luc Jacamon, this 2010-present story deepens the noir world of The Killer by exploring the cost of a life lived by contract. It matters as a compelling, character-driven coda to the original series, showing that some stains cannot be washed away.
