DMZ #10

This concluding chapter of the "Body of a Journalist" arc arrives with a cover by Brian Wood that says everything without showing a face — a solitary figure in a PRESS vest, red messenger bag across their chest, stands with arms outstretched against a map of Manhattan Island, the DMZ, surrounded by the fractured geography of a second American civil war. The stark, graphic composition from Wood and the Vertigo creative team captures the series' signature tension between individual vulnerability and the brutal machinery of conflict. A fitting visual punctuation mark to a five-part story about what it costs to bear witness.
