Goiter #6

The cover of Goiter #6 from Kilgore Comics sets an immediately intriguing tone, depicting a trio of uniformed soldiers marching in formation against a stark, sandy backdrop broken by a brick wall — rendered in Josh Pettinger's warm, retro-tinged linework. With "The Escape" as the featured story, there's a palpable tension baked right into that image of regimented movement and confined space. Pettinger handles every aspect of the book solo — writing, art, inking, coloring, and lettering — making this 2021 self-contained vision feel like a genuine artistic statement.
