Gen 13 Bootleg #19

Gen 13 Bootleg #19 (Image, 1998) presents a striking swamp-set scene with cover pencils by David Ross and inks by Mark Irwin — a wide-eyed young man in a red costume clutches something green and unexpected, caught between a dark, guitar-wielding figure lurking behind him and a blue-haired woman in the foreground who raises a single cautionary finger his way. The lush, watery backdrop and the charged body language between the three figures hint at a story full of tension and offbeat surprises. With Barbara Kesel writing and David Ross on interior art, this Wildstorm series continues to deliver its signature mix of action and humor.
