Paper Girls #19

Two figures stand hand-in-hand, bathed in a warm spotlight as they face the wreckage of an enormous crashed red machine — a futuristic vessel of some kind, half-buried in rubble, its single glowing eye trained directly on them — while two more figures scramble across its hull in the background. Cliff Chiang's cover composition is quietly stunning, pairing the intimacy of that small human connection against the sheer scale of sci-fi catastrophe, all rendered in Matt Wilson's cool blues and urgent reds. Brian K. Vaughan's time-traveling series continues to deliver the kind of imagery that lingers well after the issue is closed.
