Mind the Gap #2

Part two of Image's psychological thriller delivers a cover that stops you cold: a hooded figure clutches a syringe while a building blazes behind them, the warm inferno throwing their face into sharp, unsettling relief. McCann, Esquejo, and Oback collaborate to make that single image hum with menace and unanswered questions. If "Intimate Strangers Part 2" keeps the tension wound as tight as this cover suggests, Mind the Gap is shaping up to be one of 2012's most gripping reads.
