Gunnerkrigg Court #7

Thomas Siddell's Gunnerkrigg Court continues its beautifully strange journey with Volume 7: Synthesis, collecting more of the acclaimed webcomic in a handsome print edition from Boom! Studios. The cover commands attention with a striking, stylized creature — all sweeping curves of deep blue and crimson, with multiple haunting eyes and a jagged-toothed maw — rendered in a bold, almost totemic graphic style against a soft cosmic backdrop. For fans of smart, mythologically rich storytelling, this $16.99 volume is a wonderful addition to the shelf.
