Fear Agent #25

The fourth chapter of "I Against I" arrives with a cover that doesn't pull any punches — a grim, snarling figure strides forward clutching a rifle while an entire town burns in a wall of orange and yellow fire behind him, a fallen blonde woman crumpling to the ground at his feet. Tony Moore's cover work captures a raw, desperate intensity that perfectly suits this pulpy sci-fi western series from Dark Horse. With Rick Remender and Moore driving the story into its penultimate stretch, issue #25 makes a compelling case for why Fear Agent was one of 2008's most viscerally satisfying reads.
