Rat Queens #7

Rat Queens #7 finds Kurtis J. Wiebe and Roc Upchurch's Eisner-nominated series in strikingly atmospheric territory, as this cover by Roc Upchurch presents a dark-skinned woman with voluminous curly hair seated amid scattered skulls and dripping candles on a flooded surface — a skull necklace at her throat and a purple garment pooled around her. Looming above in the teal darkness, massive tentacles curl ominously overhead, suggesting something ancient and deeply unsettling closing in. It's a beautifully rendered, moody image that captures the series' flair for blending fantasy dread with compelling, character-focused storytelling.
