Fanboys vs. Zombies #17

This cover for Fanboys vs. Zombies #17 from BOOM! Studios delivers a genuinely striking image: a glowing, energy-wreathed figure wields an enormous ornate sword with enough force to send zombie heads flying, while a horde of undead surges up from below and a red-haired figure is caught in the chaos at his feet. Houghton and Turner bring real energy to the composition, balancing over-the-top zombie-slaying spectacle with just enough character detail to make you curious about everyone caught in the fray. If you've been following this series through 2013, issue #17 looks like a chapter that's leaning hard into its most fun instincts.
