Dept. H #3

From Matt Kindt and Sharlene Kindt comes this third chapter of Dark Horse's deep-sea murder mystery, and the cover alone sets a wonderfully unsettling tone. A solitary figure in a full diving suit stands against a wash of cool blues and grays, weighted down by ballast bags at their feet and connected to trailing hoses above — isolated, anonymous, and utterly at the mercy of the deep. Matt Kindt's scratchy, ink-drawn linework paired with Sharlene Kindt's watercolor atmosphere makes this one of 2016's most visually distinctive covers on the stands.
