Ant #1

Image Comics launched this series in 2005 with a cover that immediately commands attention — a red-armored, insectoid hero crouches low over a moonlit rooftop, every muscle coiled and claws splayed wide as if about to spring right off the page. Mario Gully's cover pencils and inks give Ant a sleek, almost alien physicality, blending human form with hard-edged exoskeletal design in striking fashion. With "Reality Bites, Part One" kicking off the story inside, this is a confident opening chapter from a creative team ready to make their mark at Image.
