Queen & Country, Vol. 2: Operation Morningstar
Greg Rucka is the award-winning author of both comic books and prose novels. Before entering the world of graphic literature, he had made his mark on the crime genre by writing the highly successful Atticus Kodiak novels—KEEPER, FINDER, SMOKER, SHOOTING AT MIDNIGHT, and CRITICAL SPACE—for Bantam. He made his comic book debut in 1997 with WHITEOUT, a collaboration with artist Steve Lieber for Oni Press, which was soon followed by a critically acclaimed run on DC’s Batman series, DETECTIVE COMICS, and the Eisner Award-winning WHITEOUT: MELT. Rucka has since written innumerable comics for various companies and written three comics-related novels, BATMAN: NO MAN’S LAND, GRENDEL: PAST-PRIME, and WOLVERINE/ELEKTRA: REDEEMER. Never one to rest, Rucka is currently writing the regular QUEEN & COUNTRY series for Oni; has taken over scripting chores on Marvel’s ELEKTRA and BLACK WIDOW series; collaborating with artist J.G. Jones on the Wonder Woman hardcover THE HIKETEIA (DC Comics); and is putting the finishing touches on his sixth novel, A FISTFUL OF RAIN.
