G.I. Joe #8

Joshua Williamson continues his Image Comics run on G.I. Joe with this quietly gripping eighth issue, featuring a cover by Tom Reilly that pulls the reader in from an overhead perspective. A dark-haired woman in civilian clothes — leather jacket, jeans, rolling a blue suitcase — walks across a large star emblem on the floor, while an ominous shadow looms behind her, gun raised. It's a tense, spy-thriller composition that hints at the danger lurking just out of frame, with Lee Loughridge's cool color palette lending the whole scene an uneasy calm.
