Fear Agent #9

Heath Huston looms large against a roiling wall of fire on Tony Moore's cover for this 2006 Image series, his battle-worn face set with grim determination as he clutches a hefty sci-fi blaster at the ready. Shadowy alien forms flicker at the edges of the inferno, reinforcing the sense that this Fear Agent is very much not alone out there. With Rick Remender writing, Jerome Opeña on interior art, and Michelle Madsen's colors, issue #9 — "How to Serve Man" — promises the kind of pulpy, hard-edged sci-fi adventure the series does so well.
