Deathbed #6

Riley Rossmo's cover for this 2018 Vertigo finale is a genuinely unsettling piece of work — a massive, shaggy beast with blazing orange eyes and a crescent-moon mark on its brow roars open-mouthed at the viewer, its swirling fur engulfing skulls, ghostly figures, and struggling human forms caught in the churning tide below. The teal-and-ink palette gives the whole image a fevered, otherworldly energy that feels entirely earned by the sixth chapter of Joshua Williamson and Rossmo's wild adventure series. If you've been following Deathbed, this closing issue promises a cover that sets the stakes as high as they can go.
