The Nine Lives of Herbert Noble

Herbert Noble isn't your typical spy—he's a man with nine lives, quite literally. This Antarctic Press series, launched in 2017, follows a secret agent who keeps cheating death in the most spectacular ways, each "life" resetting his perilous mission. Written and illustrated by a single creative team, the debut issue sets up a high-concept premise that blends espionage with darkly comedic fantasy. It's a lean, inventive one-shot that makes the most of its limited run, offering a complete, self-contained thrill ride.
