Huck: Big Bad World #3

Rafael Albuquerque's cover for this third chapter of Mark Millar's Huck: Big Bad World is quietly unnerving — a dark-haired woman stands at the fore, eyes downcast, conjuring a swirling energy in her raised hand, while behind her a sparse, institutional room holds several distressed or disoriented figures: a man laughing on a bunk, a frightened older woman, a hunched child, and others seemingly caught in various states of confusion or pain. The cool blue-grey palette and clinical setting give the whole image a haunting, contained tension that makes you want to know exactly what's going on in that room. Millar and Albuquerque are clearly taking Huck's world somewhere darker and more complex in 2025, and this issue looks like a compelling step into that territory.
