The Killer and the King

In 1994, Caliber Press released a single, self-contained comic titled The Killer and the King, a one-shot that pairs a ruthless hitman with a monarch in a tense, character-driven drama. Written and illustrated by a creative team typical of the press's early '90s independent output, the issue stands as a brief, atmospheric snapshot of the era's crime and dark humor storytelling. While it never expanded into a series, its singular premise and stark execution make it a curious footnote for collectors of Caliber's eclectic catalog.
