New Masters #4

The cover of this fourth issue from Shobo, Shof, and Segala captures the quietly adventurous spirit of New Masters perfectly — a young woman astride a weathered, mechanical scooter pauses to survey a sweeping coastal landscape, distant boats dotting the water and a dome-shaped structure with antenna rising against a hazy horizon. The warm, sun-bleached palette and effortlessly cool world-building have made this Image series one of 2022's most visually distinctive sci-fi offerings. If you've been following this story, issue four promises more of the same rich atmosphere that sets New Masters apart.
