Red Before Black #6

Viewed from directly above, two young women lie motionless among lily pads and water hyacinths, encircled by vivid coral snakes and flanked by the lurking form of an alligator — it's a striking, quietly ominous composition that writer Stephanie Phillips and artist Goran Sudžuka have been building toward all series. Svorcina's lush, saturated greens make the danger feel almost dreamlike, which somehow makes it more unsettling. Issue #6 of this BOOM! Studios series arrives in 2025 with the kind of cover that stops you cold in the rack.
