Muertos #[nn]

A skeletal gunslinger dominates the cover of this 2021 HUM! release, its hollow grin and wide-brimmed hat framing a small portrait of a dark-haired woman tucked into the hatband — a haunting image that blends the macabre with the mythic. A dramatic chase scene stretches across the top of the page, horses and a vintage automobile locked in pursuit across an open landscape. Pierre Place delivers a moody, sepia-toned vision that promises a story where the dead and the living share the same dangerous road.
