There has always been a Purple Hood. “The Kings Man” and then the international agent used by HM Government to deal with external and internal threats. 

Mad men with nuclear bombs. 

Organised drug cartels. 

Power hungry dictators. 

The Britton family have always been Purple Hoods. The Purple Hood is precise and clinical in his work. But above all else those wearing the Hood have had guidance from their consciences. So when the military stand idly by, unable to act when civilians are massacred –when politicians only draw up policy and blow warm air….. ...does the Purple Hood –does John Britton– sit back on his hands idly awaiting a change in policy? 

Or does John Britton pull on the Hood and say: “Enough! The line is drawn and crossed!” 

Time for the bad men to run. 

Time to hide. Or time to die! 

Ben Dilworth writes and draws this mini epic.
