Queen & Country, Vol. 5: Operation Stormfront 1 review Greg Rucka, Carla Speed McNeil

Visceral action in Greg Rucka's spy-thriller classic
"Operation Storm Front" is the fifth volume of Greg Rucka's "Queen And Country" series, reprinting issues #16-20 of this increasingly dense, gripping spy-thriller saga. This is the best storyline to date, a tense, grippingly violent story that revolves around a kidnapping in the former Soviet ...

Queen & Country Declassified Volume 3: Sons & Daughters (Queen and Country (Graphic Novels)) 1 review Antony Johnston, Christopher J. Mitten
Oni Press, 2006
Queen and Country the best spy drama out there!
In the graphic novel genre, nothing comes close to queen and country. These collections of single comic books are a wonderful look into the world of spies and the world we live in. Riveting and wonderful. Recommend reading all the others as well!!

Queen & Country Volume 8: Operation: Red Panda (Queen & Country) Greg Rucka, Chris Samnee
Oni Press, 2007
Operation: Red Panda has the Minders being deployed to the war-torn streets of Iraq to investigate and potentially "terminate" an Iraqi bureaucrat who is suspected of giving allied secrets to local insurgents. As the old saying goes, all plans goes out the window once the first bullet is fired. And when things go from bad to worse for Tara, years of trauma and abuse come violently forward.

Oni Press, 2002
catering to comic book connoisseurs' tastes? Oni's specialty
+ What James Bond would be as a women + Fun spy-thriller graphic novel
If you ask for my favourite genre in comics (or any part of the entertainment industry, really), the first answer you'll get from me is unlikely to be "political spy thriller." It may not be the second one, either. But if you ask me if I appreciate a well-written, well-researched, and impressively ...
