Hotwire: Requiem for the Dead #[nn]

This hardcover collection from Radical Comics brings Steve Pugh's Hotwire: Requiem for the Dead to life in striking fashion — the cover, fully rendered by Pugh himself, places a pale, white-haired woman front and center, her cool gaze commanding attention while a menacing figure brandishes a flaming weapon in the charged background behind her. Pugh's painted artwork has a cinematic intensity that feels right at home in 2010's wave of ambitious creator-driven sci-fi storytelling. A handsome volume for anyone drawn to atmospheric, visually confident genre fiction.
