In the future, time travel is invented, so an organization (unspecified) get use this to “remove” troublesome people. So they send their Assassin Maya back to kill them. In the first story her target is Virginia Hall a disabled American, who is supporting the French Resistance.
As with all time-travel movies, there is an awkward moment when one character, can just simply do their job in order to fix the situation and Artemis is no different. Of course, there is no sense in the time travel in Artemis & THE ASSASSIN #2 , but no less sense than in any other story in this genre. Phillips makes up for it with narrative force, quick paced action.
Artist Meghan Hetrick & Francesca Fantini, displayed great talent thorough out , displaying the emotions of the victims, while putting on a frozen façade one of the characters until it was absolutely necessary. I like the uniform and character design, that is obviously an homage to the purple Hawkeye suit, though I would rather see it in a different color.
I hate the trope of including Nazis as the absolutely spectrum of evil, but here the fact that it adds to the confusion of character alignment was great. Aftershock has been on fire lately, cranking out Film and Television IP again and again, and that is no exception here for Artemis & THE ASSASSIN #2
