Dark Horse has provided ROBOT 6 with an exclusive first look at the upcoming hardcover Polar: Came From the Cold, a print collection of Victor Santos' bloody, and gorgeous, action-adventure webcomic.

Seriously, it's beautiful and bleak, telling the story of "the world's most deadly spy" Black Kaiser, who's ripped out of retirement by an assassination attempt that places him "on a collision course with a stab-happy torture expert and a seductive but deadly redhead. His mission only ends if he dies or kills everyone out to get him, and he’s not in the habit of dying."

Arriving Dec. 11, the 160-page comic has been rescripted for print. You can get a taste of Polar, and some of the new dialogue, below.
