Nomad #17

Sins of the Mother!" promises a sharp family reckoning in this September 1993 issue of Nomad, with cover art by Samuel Clarke Hawbaker and Bill Anderson setting a tense, atmospheric mood. The cover puts two women center stage — a dark-haired, leather-clad figure standing over a visibly battered woman seated against a crumbling wall, a blade gleaming between them — while a haunting silhouette of a child looms on the wall behind them. It's a striking, emotionally charged image that makes "Mommy Dearest" feel like exactly the kind of story you won't want to put down.
