The Killer: Affairs of the State

In The Killer: Affairs of the State (2022–present, Boom! Studios), the titular assassin returns for a six-issue miniseries that finds him drawn into a shadowy conspiracy far larger than any single target. Written by Matz with art by Luc Jacamon, the creative duo who defined the original The Killer saga, this story deepens the franchise’s signature blend of cold, methodical violence and cynical political intrigue. It matters as a standalone chapter that expands the world of the acclaimed French-born series, offering a taut, modern thriller for readers who crave a smart, morally ambiguous hitman story.
