Hit-Monkey: Year of the Monkey #[nn]

A suited, red-faced monkey bearing two oversized pistols charges straight toward the viewer in this striking Marvel one-shot from 2010, rendered entirely by Dave Johnson whose cover work gives the image a cool, moody atmosphere of blue-black shadow. The composition — tight, low-angle, and genuinely unsettling — makes it immediately clear this isn't your average Marvel offering. Hit-Monkey: Year of the Monkey is a wonderfully offbeat package that delivers a memorable visual premise with surprising confidence.
