Book Two: Verdicts
Continuing the all-new painted look at the modern Marvel Universe! Last issue we were introduced to Jeff Piper, an ordinary man trying to survive the mean streets of the Big Apple as an officer of the NYPD. In the second compelling chapter we jump ahead a few years and find Jeff knee deep in the good fight, all the while haunted by the temptation of the Kingpin and the danger posed by costumed gods like the Phoenix and the mighty Avengers. Chuck Dixon and Terese Neilsen take readers on a street-level tour of key events in the Marvel Universe from the '60s to today in this all-new, fully painted, bookshelf limited series.
