KILLER AFFAIRS OF STATE (2022)

The Eisner-nominated series returns ahead of the upcoming David Fincher Netflix film! Caught and put to work as an on-call assassin for the French government, Killer has to adjust to working with a handler, a partner, and living life as a civilian. An underhanded target, a City Hall employee, leads Killer and his partner, Nicolas, toward a sinister web of city-wide corruption. But while Nicolas assures Killer that it's all for the greater good, will Killer ever be able to get back to his nihilistic lifestyle, free from debt and government associations? Discover the Eisner Award-nominated series by artist Luc Jacamon and writer Matz (The Black Dahlia) ahead of the upcoming Netflix film directed by David Fincher (The Social Network), written by Andrew Kevin Walker (Se7en), and starring Michael Fassbender (X-Men: First Class).

*  The gang wars within the city intensify, thanks to the suspicious death of a prominent drug runner. *  Barbara, the Killer's and Nicolas's handler, introduces them to another undercover agent working to infiltrate the gang of a corrupt city hall official. *  Can they leverage the connection to give the official the "negative treatment" - and take him off the board for good?

The game has changed... A key player has been knocked off of the board for good, and the Killer finds himself in the midst of an escalating crisis. The Killer's handler within the French government tasks him with tracking down the source of illegal guns fueling local gang wars... one with dangerous ties to a hotshot political figure.

Killer and Nicolas continue to escalate the local gang wars and promote their man on the inside, while some too-clever local cops catch on to their plot, and Mayor Marchand continues to rise in power. Meanwhile, as Killer settles into his real job, will his attention be dangerously divided?

Mayor Marchand has blood on his hands, but that's not going to stop him from using the recent gang violence for his own political gain. While Killer remains as detached as ever over this new development, only concerned about new clients, the same can't be said for Nicolas. But when an organization with connections to the mayor and religious extremists emerges, the two are faced with one of their most dangerous assignments yet...

In the sixth and FINAL ISSUE, all of the pieces are in place for the final move against corruption. Things finally feel in sync for Killer again. But two detectives who know far too much may just throw a wrench in everything...
