'68 Rule of War #4

Mark Kidwell's Vietnam-era zombie series delivers a genuinely unsettling close-up on this Cover A by Nat Jones — a decayed, glowing-eyed undead face dominates the entire frame, bolted with metal hardware and riddled with bullet casings, rendered in sickly blues and smoldering amber. It's the kind of image that makes the series' brutal marriage of war horror and the undead feel viscerally real. With Jeff Zornow on interior art and Jay Fotos's atmospheric colors, '68: Rule of War #4 closes out this chapter on a note that's as harrowing as anything Image published in 2014.
