Taskmaster: Marvel’s Underrated Spy Thriller 🔥 | Surrounded by Shortboxes

We’re diving into one of Marvel’s sharpest, funniest, and most criminally underrated minis of the last few years — 'Taskmaster: The Rubicon Trigger' by Jed MacKay and Alessandro Vitti.

Five issues. One globe-trotting manhunt. A mercenary who’s equal parts menace and stand-up comic. This undersung Nick Fury & Taskmaster team-up feels like a lost Lethal Weapon sequel, balancing espionage and energy with brutal action, razor-sharp humor, and some killer character work.

We’ll cover:
✅ Jed MacKay’s rise at Marvel pre- and post-*Taskmaster*
✅ Alessandro Vitti’s gritty, kinetic art style
✅ A quick issue-by-issue breakdown of The Rubicon Trigger
✅ Why this series deserves way more love
