"A perfectly paranoid super-powered espionage tale" - Entertainment Weekly
Holden Carver is a double agent without a choice, forced into a role he never wanted. Left to fend for himself among the baddest of bad guys, he must evade capture by his former allies and avoid suspicion by those he is secretly gathering intelligence on. Now the snare is tightening and Carver must make hard choices. But just how much does evil mastermind Tao really know? And what will Holden do when given a chance to come clean?

"Smart, cool and cruelly funny. Brubaker finds dozens of ways to use the metaphorical force of superhero comics to feed the spy story that underlies this tale... Phillips' shadowy art is far more noir than heroic slick." -- Publisher's Weekly
"A perfectly paranoid super-powered espionage tale" -- Entertainment Weekly
"...Certainly the best series to hit the shelves since Preacher made its debut... I think it's safe to say that Sleeper can take its place among the best comic books. Of all time." -- Ain't It Cool News
