Killadelphia #18

Rodney Barnes's horror series delivers one of its most darkly striking covers yet with issue #18, framing a bloody, brutal struggle between two vampiric figures inside a gold heart — a grotesque Valentine's image splattered with crimson. A winged cherub floats above the carnage while two more fallen cherubs lie bloodied at the bottom of the composition, turning the language of romance utterly on its head. If you're already following this acclaimed Image series, this 2021 installment is exactly the kind of visceral, imaginative storytelling that keeps readers coming back.
