News from the Fallout #5

Chris Condon and Jeffrey Alan Love's stark, atmospheric series reaches its fifth chapter with a cover that does a lot of heavy lifting in pure silhouette — a lone, duster-clad figure carrying a rifle stands on a ridge beside a small dog, both dwarfed by a vast, ominous dark sphere hanging in the sky above them. Jeffrey Alan Love's black-and-white artwork gives the image a haunting, woodcut-like quality that feels both timeless and quietly unsettling. If this Image series has been on your radar, issue five looks like exactly the right moment to see where this desolate, mysterious world is headed.
