"From the World of John Wick", proclaims the subtitle of The Continental, the new event miniseries comprising three movie-length instalments.

There's little doubt that it hails from the Wickiverse's quirky world of assassins and the ecosystem that serves them, given its mentions of the High Table, the presence of Adjudicators, those luvly gold coins, and a constant, casual disregard for human life.
