Crawl Space: XXXombies #1

Part one of four kicks off this 2007 Image series from Rick Remender, Tony Moore, and Kieron Dwyer with a cover that grabs attention immediately — a massive, grotesquely decomposed zombie skull dominates the frame, its hollow eye socket framing a sunglasses-wearing tough guy leveling a pistol and a wide-eyed blonde woman beside him, their colorful, pulpy energy a sharp contrast to all that rot. The cover pencils by Kieron Dwyer and inks by Tony Moore deliver both stomach-churning horror and a knowing wink toward exploitation cinema, setting the tone for what promises to be an irreverent, blood-soaked ride.
