Fear Agent #18

Fear Agent #18 brings the second chapter of "Hatchet Job" to vivid, brutal life under Jerome Opeña's cover pencils and inks. The cover puts Heath Huston front and center — battered, bloodied, and defiant — gripping a gore-slicked blade while a crowd of pale, masked alien figures looms in the arena-like background behind him. It's the kind of image that perfectly captures what Rick Remender's sci-fi series does best: one very determined human being against overwhelming, deeply weird odds.
