Old Man Logan #16

The cover of this 2017 Marvel series entry is quietly unsettling — a luminous sphere hovers in a murky, glowing green void, its surface etched with the unmistakable silhouette of an outstretched clawed hand, while curved, blade-like forms reach up from below as if cradling or threatening it. Andrea Sorrentino's cover art leans into atmosphere over action, letting dread and mystery do the heavy lifting ahead of "Return to the Wastelands: Part 1." With Lemire, Sorrentino, and Maiolo reuniting on this issue, fans of the team's moody, painterly style have every reason to pick this one up.
