Deep Beyond #2

The second issue of Image's Deep Beyond plunges headlong into science-fiction survival territory, with cover art by Andrea Broccardo showcasing two armored figures — a combat-ready woman in orange-and-black tactical gear brandishing a large rifle, and a bearded man in a bulky green pressure suit — surrounded on all sides by massive, curling magenta tentacles against a rubble-strewn landscape. The title "Attack of the Outside World!" hints at just how hostile that environment is, and Broccardo's vivid, detail-rich linework (colored by Barbara Nosenzo) makes every sucker and every glowing suit light feel charged with tension. Writers Mirka Andolfo and David Goy's series is shaping up to be a genuinely gripping ride through a world where the dangers are enormous — literally.
