'68: Last Rites #1

Cover A of '68: Last Rites #1 drops readers straight into the nightmare with a blood-soaked survivor in a pinstripe shirt, mouth open in a desperate scream, engulfed on all sides by a pressing horde of decaying undead. Nat Jones's cover work is viscerally detailed — every rotting face and grasping claw rendered with grim precision against the near-black void closing in around the lone human figure. Mark Kidwell and Jeff Zornow's 2015 series promises the same unflinching Vietnam-era zombie horror the '68 universe is known for, and this opening chapter looks like a harrowing way to kick it off.
