The Killer is Back in a First Look at The Killer: Affairs of the State II #2

Posted on by

BOOM! Studios has revealed a first look at The Killer: Affairs of the State II #2. The iconic French crime saga that inspired the David Fincher film, the first issue of The Killer: Affairs of the State II by the writer/artist duo Matz and Luc Jacamon, letterer AndWorld Design, and translated by Edward Gauvin, is in shops now!

Somewhere in the south of France, the Killer spends his time in a remote mountain cabin. There, he quietly carries out his assignments and awaits further orders. After his run-in with unexpected neighbors interrupts his mission, the Killer is brought to question things he’d never considered. Will this chance encounter change the way he sees the world? 

The Killer: Affairs of the State II #2 features main cover art by series artist Luc Jacamon, and variant covers by acclaimed illustrator Guillem March.  It comes to shops June 18.

In a cabin deep in the mountains of the South of France, the Killer has set up a new base of operations. From this remote hideout, he accepts each new mission with a calculated precision, never straying from the assignment and always returning to this safe haven in the immediate aftermath. This practiced routine is suddenly disrupted though when he discovers that he has some… unexpected neighbors. This unanticipated development seems to have the potential to finally alter the way the Killer sees the world. But for a man in his line of work, change isn’t just dangerous, it could be deadly.
