Cassidy is mine

It's good to be back!
And the story starts with two of my favorites too Cassidy and Ana. Amazing artwork, decent enough story to start things up and solid work overall. Great coloring too.
I guess this one's going to introduce us to some of the new characters in Overwatch 2.

Dark Horse has published several comic books based on video games, and the "Overwatch" ones always impress me.

Route 66 in the United States: Cole Cassidy is out in the desert.
Cole had gotten a mysterious note summoning him to go all the way there from…wherever he had been before.
In Cairo, Egypt, Cole remains in disguise. He mets up with Ana Amari, his dear old friend from his Overwatch days.
As the two catch up on old times, there’s a recall to Overwatch.
Nice action with the gun fight outside the saloon/in the market place.
Will Cole strike out and assemble a team of his own? (He does have a pretty sweet BAMF belt.)

Number 35 , get them all.
Dark horse comics freebie. Suitable for all ages. Good color artwork. This would be easier to review if it was 32 pages. Cole Cassidy is back and willing to assemble a new team. Gunslinger vs. Talon. Five shrinkflation issues?

Like a lot of these video game comics from Dark Horse, you are expected to be extremely well-versed on the game and know all of the lore to enjoy these. There is no introduction or explanations to what's going on even though there' is obviously a lot that has gone on outside this comic.
This is about a character from the game going around recruiting new members even though in the latter issues he just shows up at the end and tells people to join up. Ray Fawkes does his typical half-assed job writing this after a decent start at the beginning.
