Prototype #6

Based on Activision's hit multi-platform video game, this WildStorm series reaches its sixth installment with a cover by Darick Robertson and Matt Jacobs that captures the chaos perfectly — a hoodie-clad figure leaps dynamically over a crush of fallen soldiers, one arm raised wielding a grotesque biomass weapon while fire and urban destruction rage behind him. Writers Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti team with artist Darick Robertson to bring this world of viral mutation and urban warfare to the comics page with gritty, visceral energy. If you've been following this 2009 adaptation, this issue's cover alone makes a compelling case to keep reading.
