Faster Than Light #9

Two suited astronauts stand side by side against the vast, cratered face of a moon filling the star-scattered sky behind them — a quietly powerful image that captures the solitude and wonder at the heart of this Image/Shadowline series. Brian Haberlin's cover work brings real weight to the figures, their helmets nearly touching as they face the reader in a moment that feels both intimate and cosmically small. "Little Fish, Part 2" promises to continue the series' thoughtful take on deep-space adventure, and issue nine keeps that spirit alive with a cover that's as contemplative as it is visually striking.
