Gideon Falls #17

The 2019 Eisner Award winner for Best New Series continues its unsettling momentum with this striking cover by Andrea Sorrentino — a brooding figure rendered in muted greens and blacks, their skull cracked open to reveal a vivid red anatomical brain, the entire image fractured across an overlapping jigsaw puzzle grid that suggests a mind — or a reality — coming apart at the seams. Jeff Lemire and Sorrentino, with colors by Dave Stewart, kick off a new five-part arc, "The Pentoculus," and that puzzle motif feels like a quiet promise that the mysteries of Gideon Falls are about to deepen considerably.
