The Killer, Volume 2

The Killer, Volume 2

Our protagonist keeps painting a picture that he doesn't care about humanity or what he does, that he only cares about himself. Yet we see more of his rules being broken and connections being made: his girlfriend is still his girlfriend and he's far more protective, and he finds friends in the godson of a Columbian drug lord and a former cop who has been setup to take a fall. His jobs are also getting increasingly (intentionally) messy. He's needing to make examples of people instead of them dying in a way that looks accidental and the stakes are being raised as a result. What makes matters worse is he seems to be getting closer and closer to the Columbian drug lord, yet another string he'll have to worry about later. This is one of the best comics I've read lately and I'm really looking forward to where the series is going.
