Head Lopper #7

The third chapter of "Head Lopper and the Crimson Tower" arrives in this 2017 quarterly adventure, with Andrew MacLean's cover — colored by Jordie Bellaire — presenting a striking confrontation between a red-armored warrior and a massive, pyramid-headed creature bearing a single glaring eye, wreathed in billowing green tendrils. The bold orange backdrop and Bellaire's vivid palette give the image an almost otherworldly pulp energy, perfectly suited to a series that wears its sword-and-sorcery heart proudly on its sleeve. Three chapters in, things have clearly gotten stranger — and more dangerous.
