Bloodshot #20

Part of Valiant's sweeping "Chaos Effect" crossover event (Gamma chapter), Bloodshot #20 hits October 1994 with a cover by penciler Mike Vosburg and inker Bob Layton that puts the nanite-powered soldier front and center — armed, intense, and firing into chaos while additional figures scramble in the urban background behind him. The fractalized red-and-black border surrounding the central scene is a striking visual signature of the Chaos Effect tie-ins, giving the whole package an unsettled, reality-fracturing energy. With Kevin VanHook writing and Mike Vosburg on interior art, "Lights Out" promises the kind of gritty, high-stakes action that made Valiant's 1994 lineup so compelling.
