Escape from New York #12

Snake Plissken strides through a rubble-strewn, war-torn New York City — gun raised, eye patch in place — as a formation of military jets cuts through a blood-red sky overhead, signaling that the stakes in this world have never been higher. Christopher Sebela, Maxim Šimić, and Marissa Louise bring their dystopian vision to a head with this twelfth chapter from Boom! Studios, and Jason Copland's cover composition captures the mood with real atmosphere and grit. If you've been following Snake's journey through Manhattan's anarchic sprawl, this issue looks like exactly the kind of escalation the series has been building toward.
