Jeremiah #30

Two weathered figures stride forward through a crumbling, smoke-tinged landscape on Hermann's cover for this 2011 Dupuis album — one in a bold red shirt, the other in a feathered hat, both carrying themselves with the wary confidence of survivors in a dangerous world. Mister Fiftyfifty marks the thirtieth volume in Hermann's long-running post-apocalyptic series, and the cover's muted greens and yellows give it that distinctive, painterly atmosphere fans have come to love. If you're following Jeremiah and his companion through the ruins of civilization, this chapter looks like it has plenty of tension still to offer.
