Postal #22

The quiet tension of Postal reaches a striking moment in issue #22, as postal worker Mark stands in the foreground wearing his uniform shirt, calm and resolute against a fiery red backdrop — while a crowd of armed and serious-faced townsfolk fills the space behind him. The composition says everything: one man at the center of a community on edge, the weight of Eden, Wyoming pressing in from all sides. Matt Hawkins, Bryan Hill, Isaac Goodhart, and K. Michael Russell deliver a cover that makes this 2017 Top Cow/Image title feel as taut and purposeful as ever.
