Mad Max: Fury Road: Nux & Immortan Joe #1

Vertigo's 2015 one-shot dives deep into the wasteland mythology of Mad Max: Fury Road, spotlighting two of its most compelling figures — Nux and Immortan Joe. Tommy Lee Edwards's cover says everything about the tone: Immortan Joe's cold, steel-grilled mask dominates the upper half of the image, his pale, intense eyes fixed on the viewer, while below him a full war convoy of armored vehicles and War Boys fans out across a dust-choked road in organized chaos. With George Miller and Nico Lathouris among the writers and a murderers' row of artists including Leandro Fernández, Riccardo Burchielli, and Andrea Mutti bringing the wasteland to life, this is a richly crafted companion to one of 2015's most visceral cinematic experiences.
