Basilisk #10

Chapter Ten of Cullen Bunn and Jonas Scharf's unsettling BOOM! Studios horror series delivers a cover dripping with dread: a young woman in a pale dress stands backed against a gnarled tree, gripping a bloodied implement at her sides while two shadowy figures close in on her from either side, their flashlights cutting through the deep blue night. Alex Guimarães's cold, moonlit palette gives the whole scene an eerie, suffocating atmosphere that feels both beautiful and deeply threatening. If "Eyes of the Faithful" is any indication, this penultimate stretch of Basilisk is not letting up on the tension.
