From Alex Segura (Silent City) and Monica Gallagher comes this follow-up to the hit graphic novel about superheroes, corruption, and justice.
Six months after the events of the first arc we find Lara in a different spot. Sober and focused on her job at The Creighton Courier covering the increasingly corrupt CCPD. But that’s all about to change. A letter from a dead man, Marco Nava, the original Black Ghost, and her brother Tomas’s best friend derails Lara’s plans, and sends her sprinting down a rabbit hole to find out more about the man who wore the Black Ghost mask before he was gunned down...and the final case he was working on: the downfall of Creighton’s corrupt police commissioner. And, as the bodies begin to pile up, Lara is forced to don the mask and hood once more just in time to face off against a deadly and silent female mob assassin named Harrow.
Collects Black Ghost series two, #1–#5, in print for the first time.
