Gemini Blood #6

Walter Simonson's cover for this sixth installment of DC's Helix series delivers an unsettling, disorienting image: a figure in a red jacket hangs upside down, face twisted in a wild, hollow-eyed expression, while an eerie flame or energy trails from their head against a shadowy background. It's a striking visual that captures the dark, sci-fi tension Christopher Hinz and Tommy Lee Edwards have been building throughout "Species Paratwa." If you've been following this 1997 series, issue six looks like a compelling reason to stay on board.
