Great Pacific #17

Martín Morazzo's cover for this third chapter of "Big Game Hunters" sets a tense, desperate scene — a red-haired figure crouches atop a vast mound of compacted debris and refuse, while two fallen bodies lie sprawled around them beneath a hazy, smoke-filled sky and the looming silhouettes of ruined structures. Joe Harris and Morazzo's environmental thriller from Image continues to push its Pacific Garbage Patch setting into genuinely grim territory, and this image makes clear that the stakes in 2014's Great Pacific have never felt more immediate.
