Primordial #4

Andrea Sorrentino's striking cover for Primordial #4 fills the frame with the close, searching face of a small animal — likely one of the space-faring creatures at the heart of this series — rendered in a haunting green, black, and white palette that feels simultaneously tender and unsettling. Dave Stewart's bold color choices give the image an almost otherworldly glow, while swirling organic shapes surround the subject like cosmic debris or tangled wilderness. Jeff Lemire and Sorrentino's 2021 Image series continues to pair Cold War science with genuine emotional weight, and this cover captures that quiet intensity perfectly.
