Antarctica #6

The penultimate chapter of this Top Cow/Image sci-fi series arrives with a striking cover showing three figures — a tall man standing with his back turned, a young woman in glasses with a jewel on her forehead, and a masked humanoid figure clutching something glowing — all framed against a cold, industrial structure in a snowy landscape. The geometric title treatment and muted, frost-touched palette give the whole image a tense, quietly foreboding atmosphere. Birks, Roberts, and White have crafted a series that feels genuinely distinct in 2023's sci-fi comics landscape, and this sixth issue looks like a compelling place to feel the pressure building.
