Elephantmen #63

Richard Starkings and Axel Medellin's Elephantmen reaches issue sixty-three with a cover that puts the sheer scale of this pulp science-fiction world on full display — a massive, battle-worn mammoth-hybrid looms in deep red tones while two figures on a sleek futuristic motorcycle race across the foreground, one brandishing a firearm. The contrast between that enormous, brooding presence and the cool blue speed of the riders makes for a striking visual tension that captures the series' signature blend of gritty action and bold world-building. With John Roshell, Comicraft, and Boo Cook also contributing, this 2015 Image release is a compelling chapter in one of indie comics' most visually ambitious ongoing series.
