Control #1

Control #1 introduces a tense, grounded thriller where Kate and Mitch uncover a hit-man mid-interrogation—only for Mitch to be fatally shot, leaving Kate to take on a new partner, Doherty, in a world where every move could be a death sentence. Written by Andy Diggle and Angela Cruickshank and illustrated by Andrea Mutti, with colors by Vladimir Popov and letters by Simon Bowland, the issue sets a sharp, suspenseful tone from the first page. Ben Oliver’s cover captures the moment’s raw intensity, perfectly framing the shift in dynamics.
