“Highly recommended to action and noir fans.” — Library Journal “[Jacamon’s] layouts are exciting, equally adept at choreographing brutal action, placing the camera for maximum suspense, and playing with panel borders to convey the protagonist’s gradual mental breakdown.” — Publishers Weekly A professional. A man of few scruples, nerves of steel, and a steady trigger finger, but also, a man on the verge of cracking. After misadventures in Central and South America and having earned enough money to retire comfortably, the Killer retires to Mexico, but his colleagues are still in need of his irreplaceable skills . . . and before long he’s drawn back into the great geopolitical game between Cuba, Venezuela, and the United States. Artist Luc Jacamon and writer Matz (The Black Dahlia) deliver the definitive collection of the Eisner Award-nominated crime saga, The Killer, a hardboiled, noir series that New York Times bestselling writer Brian Michael Bendis calls “one of the best graphic novel series of the last ten years.”

A professional. A man of few scruples, nerves of steel, and a steady trigger finger. A man whose crimes might be catching up with him. A man on the verge of cracking. Archaia presents The Killer, a hardboiled, noir series chronicling one man''s journey through some seriously bad mojo. After his misadventures in Venezuela, our Killer retires to Mexico, but his Colombian cartel friend Mariano and the Cuban agent Katia are not far behind. Soon he finds himself drawn back into the great geopolitical game between Cuba, Venezuela, and the United States, with oil revenues and political independence the stakes. Even when he finds himself in unusual territory as the shadow owner of an oil company developing Cuba’s off-shore deposits, the need for his usual skill-set is never far away…

Archaia presents The Killer, a hardboiled, noir series chronicling one man''s journey through some seriously bad mojo. This omnibus collects The Killer Volumes 1 & 2.

Caught and put to work as an on-call assassin for the French government, Killer has to adjust to working with a handler, his new partner Nicolas, a former special forces operative, and living life as a civilian.A network of city-wide corruption awaits, getting Killer even more involved in the midst of an escalating crisis, when he just wants to get back to his nihilistic lifestyle. But, as feeling for a coworker arise in his day job, will Killer be dangerously distracted, torn between two identities?Collects The Killer: Affairs of the State #1-6.

The gang wars within the city intensify, thanks to the suspicious death of a prominent drug runner. Barbara, the Killer’s and Nicolas’s handler, introduces them to another undercover agent working to infiltrate the gang of a corrupt city hall official. Can they leverage the connection to give the official the “negative treatment” — and take him off the board for good?

The game has changed... A key player has been knocked off of the board for good, and the Killer finds himself in the midst of an escalating crisis. The Killer’s handler within the French government tasks him with tracking down the source of illegal guns fueling local gang wars… one with dangerous ties to a hotshot political figure.

Killer and Nicolas continue to escalate the local gang wars and promote their man on the inside, while some too-clever local cops catch on to their plot, and Mayor Marchand continues to rise in power. Meanwhile, as Killer settles into his real job, will his attention be dangerously divided?

Mayor Marchand has blood on his hands, but that’s not going to stop him from using the recent gang violence for his own political gain. While Killer remains as detached as ever over this new development, only concerned about new clients, the same can’t be said for Nicolas. But when an organization with connections to the mayor and religious extremists emerges, the two are faced with one of their most dangerous assignments yet…

In the sixth and FINAL ISSUE, all of the pieces are in place for the final move against corruption. Things finally feel in sync for Killer again. But two detectives who know far too much may just throw a wrench in everything…
