Rare Flavours #6

The concluding chapter of Rare Flavours arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the series' dreamy unease — a bespectacled, mustachioed figure raises a blood-stained hand as strips of film coil around him like tendrils, his half-obscured gaze hinting at something seen and unseen at once. Filipe Andrade's watercolor-inflected cover art gives the image a haunting, intimate quality that feels almost like a memory dissolving at the edges. Ram V and Andrade close out this BOOM! Studios series with the fittingly evocative chapter title "Paal Payasam," and this final issue promises the rich, layered storytelling that has defined Rare Flavours throughout its 2024 run.
