The Undertaker Volume 2

The Ogre of Camp Sutter & The Shadow of Hippocrates

In the wild frontier, the dead stay buried. It’s the living you have to worry about.

In volume two of this exciting graphic novel series, Jonas Crow—the West’s most cynical undertaker—just wants to enjoy the quiet life of a traveling mortician. His hearse is fixed, his vulture is content, and the chaos of his last job is behind him. But peace is a luxury a man with Jonas’s past can’t afford.

The silence is shattered when an old colonel delivers a chilling revelation: the "Ogre of Sutter Camp," a monstrous surgeon from the Civil War thought to be long dead, is still breathing. For Jonas, this isn't just a news report; it's a summons. The Ogre is the one man he let escape during the war, a ghost whose survival is a stain on Jonas’s own survival.

The hunt takes a desperate turn when Rose, Jonas's companion and moral compass, is taken by the surgeon. To save her, Jonas must enter a psychological house of mirrors. How do you stop a "man of medicine" who views human life as raw material and uses his own patients as human shields?

In This Volume:

• Double the Darkness: Collecting the next two chapters of the acclaimed series, featuring a continuous, high-tension narrative arc.
• A Villain Like No Other: Enter Dr. Quint, the "Ogre"—a genius, a sadist, and a man who believes he is playing God in the middle of a wasteland.
• The Weight of the Past: Explore the deep scars left by the Civil War as Jonas is forced to confront the soldier he used to be.
• Cinematic Visuals: From the claustrophobic tension of a surgeon’s clinic to the sweeping, brutal landscapes of the American West, Ralph Meyer’s art brings every grit-soaked detail to life.

Some men deserve a funeral. Others deserve to be hunted down. For Jonas Crow, the line between the two is about to disappear.
