In "Kissing with Dry Lips," Kieron Gillen crafts a quietly electric moment as the story unfolds in a cluttered Lower Weston room, where a young man flips through pages of a comic, caught between the rhythm of a song Ellis can’t stop praising and the quiet hum of his own thoughts. The issue’s raw, intimate tone is matched by Jamie McKelvie’s expressive cover, capturing a fleeting, uncertain intimacy that lingers beyond the page.
