Astronauts in Trouble #4

Part four of eleven in Image's Astronauts in Trouble, and Charlie Adlard's cover makes an immediate impression — a close-cropped, intense face dominates the starfield backdrop, eyes locked forward with unmistakable urgency, while a grid of small surveillance-style panels lines the bottom edge, hinting at multiple unfolding situations. The stark, graphic composition feels perfectly suited to a series that Publishers Weekly called "an independent force to reckon with." With Larry Young writing and Matt Smith on interior art, this 2015 series continues to deliver sharp, grounded sci-fi with real confidence.
