Nerd Swap Episode 8: Injustice Vol 1
Who is Jake Ellis?
Tim is joined by Kurt Biallas to get to the bottom of this very question.
In this spy thriller, brought to us by Nathan Edmondson and Tonci Zonjic on Image Comics, we follow Jon Moore, an ex-CIA analyst who's been on the run for roughly four years. He seems to have the upper hand in any situation he's in, and that's because he's helped by an "invisible friend" named Jake Ellis. Jake seems to know anything going on in the area surrounding Jon, and is able to direct him to safety in any situation.
This is a kind of, "Fight Club meets Bourne Identity," style action thriller, laid out with some of the most vivid colors I have seen in a long time. It is amazing.
Check it out, then listen to us talk about this beautiful book.
