King of Spies Comic (2021)

King of Spies (2021) from Image Comics delivers a gripping, high-octane thriller from writer Mark Millar and artist Matteo Scalera. At its core is Roland King, the world’s most legendary secret operative—an unstoppable force who has spent decades working in the shadows, shaping global events, and enforcing the will of powerful elites. But when he’s confronted with a terminal diagnosis and given only six months to live, everything changes. No longer willing to fade away in a quiet hospital room, Roland faces the brutal reality of his past. After forty years serving a corrupt system, he finally sees the cost of the world he helped build: broken nations, unchecked greed, and the innocent lives sacrificed along the way. With nothing left to lose, he decides to do the unthinkable. Using his unparalleled skills, insider knowledge, and a lifetime of dangerous connections, he sets out on a one-man crusade to dismantle the very institutions and individuals who profited from chaos. Scalera’s sharp, kinetic artwork amplifies the tension and intensity of Roland’s final mission, turning King of Spies into a stylish, violent, and emotionally charged tale of redemption, revenge, and reckoning.
