Alien Pig Farm 3000 #2

The cover of this 2007 Image/Raw Studios series wastes no time setting the tone: a fearsome, green-skinned alien creature with glowing eyes and massive claws has seized a struggling young woman, while a second alien lurks menacingly in the lower left and a blinding searchlight cuts through the night sky behind them. It's pulpy, kinetic sci-fi horror rendered with real energy by cover artist Mark Schultz, whose muscular linework gives the scene a satisfying old-school creature-feature feel. With Thomas Jane, Steve Niles, and Todd Farmer sharing writing duties and Don Marquez on interior art, Alien Pig Farm 3000 #2 delivers exactly the kind of gleefully over-the-top extraterrestrial mayhem its title promises.
