Low #19

Greg Tocchini's painterly cover for Low #19 pulls you right into the action: a figure in red armor crouches at the center of a chaotic battlefield scene, while a second warrior stands defiantly atop a massive lion-headed mechanical construct above them, surrounded by armored combatants and fallen figures that blur dreamlike beneath the waterline. The whole composition has that signature fluid, watercolor energy — above-world chaos bleeding into ghostly, submerged shapes below — that makes this Image series one of the most visually distinctive sci-fi books of 2017. Rick Remender and Tocchini, with colors by Dave McCaig, continue to deliver something that feels genuinely unlike anything else on the shelf.
