Flare #29

In "The Return of Duel," Flare finds herself at a crossroads when Patricia refuses to kill her on Nikki’s behalf—instead suggesting Nikki hire Duel to finish the job. Flare’s shifting demeanor unsettles everyone around her, turning allies into wary observers and enemies into uncertain adversaries. Written by Wilson Hill and illustrated by Gordon Purcell, with inks by Terry Pallot and colors by Melchman, this issue delivers a tense, character-driven turn in the series, all wrapped in a striking cover by Frank Brunner.
