28 Days Later #3

The cover art by Tim Bradstreet sets a grimly arresting tone: a lone figure in a gas mask, punk-styled tartan skirt, and tattered vest stands defiantly against a blood-red London skyline — Big Ben looming in the murk behind her — gripping a gore-splattered machete with a bloodied body crumpled at her feet. Barbed wire and a biohazard symbol frame the scene, making it clear this post-infection Britain is no place for the faint-hearted. Boom! Studios' 2011 continuation of the *28 Days Later* world is well-served by Bradstreet's striking, painterly vision of survival at its most raw.
