Paper Girls #18

Paper Girls #18 finds the series in confident stride, with Cliff Chiang's cover depicting a striking figure in a sleek, futuristic suit — her horseshoe-shaped helmet and chest emblem giving her a coolly authoritative presence as she grips what appears to be a steering column or control mechanism. A bank of sci-fi instrumentation surrounds her, including a glowing warning panel that hints at escalating tension. Matt Wilson's warm, amber-tinged palette plays beautifully against the cool blues of the cockpit environment, making this one of the more visually arresting covers Brian K. Vaughan and Chiang's time-traveling series delivered in 2017.
