Dark Horse Presents #30

Dark Horse Presents #30 brings together an impressive lineup — Francesco Francavilla's The Black Beetle, Dean Haspiel's The Red Hook, and Paul Levitz and Tim Hamilton's Brooklyn Blood, among other stories. The cover by Francisco Ruiz Velasco commands attention with a snarling, blue-furred armored warrior wielding a sword overhead while a red mechanized figure grapples below, all surrounded by scattered machinery and industrial debris in a kinetic, painterly composition. This multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning anthology series continues to prove in 2017 that genre-spanning short-form comics storytelling is very much alive and thriving.
