Faultlines #2

The second chapter of DC Vertigo's six-part Faultlines series arrives with a quietly arresting cover by Bill Koeb — a young woman huddled alone, knees drawn to her chest, seemingly wedged within a fractured, painterly space of layered greens and crumbling textures that suggest both urban decay and emotional isolation. The image carries a melancholy intimacy that feels right at home in Vertigo's mature-readers lineup, where vulnerability and fragmentation are never just metaphors. With Lee Marrs and Koeb collaborating on story and art, "Sunlit Tribe" promises the kind of grounded, human drama that made 1997 Vertigo such compelling territory.
