“Downside Part 1”

"Downside Part 1" kicks off a stark, timely tale set in a near-future UK transformed by authoritarian rule, where dissent is crushed and survival hinges on quiet resistance. Writer Dave McNamara and artist Pete Ketley craft a tense, grounded story on a crumbling estate, where the return of Joe Rossi after three years ignites old tensions and forces a community to confront both their past and the fragile present. The cover by Pete Ketley captures the weight of the moment, matching the story’s grim, urgent tone.
