Drive #1

IDW's adaptation of James Sallis' noir novel gets rolling here with a cover that perfectly captures the story's cool, nocturnal mood — a lone car gliding along an elevated highway against a purple-hued city skyline, while a rearview mirror in the lower panel reveals a pair of steady, watchful eyes. The split composition, by Lecce and Ste, says everything about a driver who sees without being seen. From the creative team of Benedetto, Fuso, and Lewis, this 2015 first issue promises a stripped-down, atmospheric ride through the shadows of crime fiction.
