Description: Review"Guggenheim’s (Last Flight Out) script emphasizes fast-paced, twisty plotting while managing to leave room for several fascinating scenes interrogating whether a superspy such as Cross is of much use in a contemporary world. Chaykin’s (Hey Kids! Comics! Vol. 2: Prophets & Loss) illustrations combine a dynamic pulp aesthetic with dazzlingly innovative page design. VERDICT A thoroughly entertaining, loving riff on familiar pulp characters that raises compelling questions about their viability in a rapidly changing world." —Library JournalReview"Guggenheim’s (Last Flight Out) script emphasizes fast-paced, twisty plotting while managing to leave room for several fascinating scenes interrogating whether a superspy such as Cross is of much use in a contemporary world.

He took the ’90s off to work on mostly unwatchable television, so he missed the money and dreck that was comics in that execrable decade. He is responsible, some might say culpable, for introducing a number of previously unexplored themes to comic books.
