Image Comics released an early look at Old Dog from Declan Shalvey, a “spy-fi” series that arrives in August 2022.
Old Dog follows Jack Lynch—once-promising CIA operative, soon-to-be retiree—who is tasked with one final mission… and that mission goes horribly wrong. He wakes years later to a changed world and deeper changes within him. When a shadow group offers Lynch a second chance at a life of adventure, he’s paired with the last person he could ever imagine. In order to adjust, this old dog will have to learn some new tricks…
“I’m excited to finally let Old Dog off his leash this August. I’m putting everything I have into this initial 6 issue ‘Redact’—all written, drawn, coloured and designed by myself. I’m making sure this is the best looking book I’ve ever drawn, down to the lovely card-stock cover,” said Shalvey in a press release from Image Comics. “For me, Old Dog is a return to the bold, moody, action packed storytelling I enjoy, each issue detailing a new adventure and opportunity to draw something cooler than the chapter before. I’m aiming to make an event-book with this, and you’re all invited to come along.”
