Postal #8

Postal #8 from Image Comics presents one of the more quietly unsettling covers of 2015 — a pool table scattered with billiard balls, a broken cue, and a dark smear of blood, all beneath a cracked framed sign reading "NO FIGHTING!" with a handwritten addendum: "NO EXCEPTIONS!" The dark humor of that contradiction speaks volumes about the uneasy order of Eden, Wyoming. Matt Hawkins, Bryan Hill, Isaac Goodhart, and Betsy Gonia deliver a series that thrives on this kind of tension, where the rules are posted precisely because someone always breaks them.
