Bitter Root #9

A battle-worn warrior stands tall amid a graveyard of shattered mechanical creatures, hefting an elaborate steampunk-style weapon over his shoulder with cool, hard-won confidence — it's a striking cover image from Sanford Greene that perfectly captures the blend of pulp adventure and supernatural grit that defines Bitter Root. Writer-artist team David F. Walker, Chuck Brown, and Greene bring their signature energy to this ninth issue, pushing the series' richly imagined world further into exhilarating territory. If you've been following this Image series, issue #9 looks like a deeply satisfying chapter.
