Criminal Macabre: The Third Child #2

Against a stark, unsettling yellow sky, this second chapter of The Third Child delivers one of the more striking images in Steve Niles' Criminal Macabre series — a winged figure in a suit soaring high above a tumbling, snarling werewolf-like creature, the vast space between them making the fall feel genuinely vertiginous. Justin Erickson's cover work is clean and atmospheric, letting that bold golden background do heavy lifting while the two figures tell a wordless story of pursuit and peril. With Christopher Mitten on interior art and Niles steering the script, this four-issue run has a confident creative team making the most of its supernatural noir premise.
