A desk-bound analyst pulled into the field

Abhi’s work as a tactical analyst keeps him behind the screens supporting Merlin, an operative he has also fallen in love with—despite his employer’s rules. When she arrives at his apartment injured and asking for help, their professional arrangement becomes a direct confrontation with the private military company they once served. The collected four-issue story combines espionage and assassins with a corporate takeover threat, while placing Abhi and Merlin’s relationship alongside the action. Its central tension turns on the gap between directing danger remotely and facing it in person.

Book overview

Human Target meets Deadpool!

The Guy in the Chair is a comics spy thriller jam packed with action, comedy, and heart.


In the blood-soaked world of assassins and spies, love has no place. Unfortunately for Abhi, a tactical analyst at a private military company, love is all he can think about. Against his employer's strict policy, he's fallen head over heels for Merlin, the field operative whose missions he supports as her "Guy in the Chair."

When Merlin shows up at his apartment bloody, beaten, and pleading for help, Abhi is yanked from behind the safety of his computer screens, and now the two must prevent their former employer and a cabal of corporate overlords from a hostile global takeover that threatens all of humanity.
