An original graphic novel created by filmmaker Guy Ritchie, (Lock Stock…, Snatch and Sherlock Holmes).
Story by Guy Ritchie and Andy Diggle (The Losers) with artwork by Mukesh Singh (18 Days; Devi).
For ten years he has lived a lie, telling himself that he nurtures life, when once he merely took it. But only now does he finally embrace the truth…that he is closer to the wild than he is to his own humanity. He is nature’s remedy to man’s disease. The man known only as Brock lives a quiet existence as gamekeeper a secluded Scottish estate, until paramilitary mercenaries storm the estate and kill Jonah Morgan – the owner and Brock’s friend. Now, Brock faces his dark past and the events he had sworn he’d forget. Obliged to avenge Jonah’s death, Brock must leave his tranquil life and journey deep into an unfamiliar, urban underworld. But as he gets pulled in deeper, it’s difficult to tell who has more power, Brock, the man, or the animal within.
