Mech Destroyer #4

Mech Destroyer #4 brings Robert Chong and Jae Kim's gritty sci-fi action series to a fever pitch with a cover that packs in the full ensemble — a dreadlocked warrior, a red-bandana fighter, a long-haired blonde wielding a blade, a focused combatant in orange, a heavily armed brute, and a fierce woman in purple, all crowded beneath the looming metallic form of the mech itself against a fiery, smoke-choked skyline. Jae Kim's linework crackles with kinetic energy, rendering each character with sharp detail and attitude to spare. If you've been following this Image series through 2001, this fourth chapter's cover promises the kind of high-octane confrontation the series has been building toward.
