Brothers in Arms #2

Based on the acclaimed Gearbox Software property, this second issue from Dynamite Entertainment puts the grim reality of WWII infantry combat front and center. Davide Fabbri's cover painting — rendered in rain-soaked grays and greens — draws you in close on a battle-worn American soldier crouching low in tall grass, his netted helmet beaded with rain and his expression steeled with hard-won focus. It's an intimate, almost uncomfortably close portrait of a man in the field, and it sets a tone of quiet tension that makes you want to turn the page immediately.
