Alienated #6

The finale issue of Alienated arrives with a cover that says everything without giving anything away: two teenagers — one battered and glowing-eyed on the left, one steady and guarded on the right — flank a central strip of purple from which an unsettling, ornate alien creature emerges, its breath rising like steam between them. Chris Wildgoose's composition perfectly captures the tension at the heart of Simon Spurrier's series, with André May's colors splitting the image into something that feels both intimate and cosmic. If you've been following this BOOM! Studios series, issue #6 is exactly the payoff the cover promises.
