Bone Parish #5

Cullen Bunn's atmospheric New Orleans horror series reaches its fifth chapter with a cover that sets a genuinely unsettling mood — a sprawling bayou tree looms over dark water as snow drifts down and a thin trail of blood winds its way across the foreground, with an alligator lurking at the water's edge. Lee Garbett's art here is hauntingly beautiful, all cool teal shadows and that single slash of red that pulls the eye straight to danger. If this series has been on your radar, issue five's brooding, swamp-soaked cover makes a compelling case for catching up.
