“Patterns”

In "Patterns," Kurt Busiek crafts a tense, character-driven story where the Confessor, hunted by government forces and falsely blamed for the Shadow Hill murders, fights to survive while uncovering a shocking truth about the mayor. With Brent E. Anderson’s detailed artwork and Alex Ross’s striking cover, this 1997 Image Comics issue delivers a powerful blend of moral conflict and suspense.
