Red Wolf #2

This second issue of Marvel's 2016 Red Wolf series arrives with a cover by Jeffrey Veregge that is striking in its stark, graphic simplicity — a lone figure bound to a chair, hat knocked to the floor, flanked by the looming red silhouettes of two threatening figures, one wielding a club and the other a patterned whip or lasso. The bold red-and-black palette gives the scene a noir-Western tension that feels immediately gripping. With Nathan Edmondson writing and Dalibor Talajić on interior art, this creative team brings real craft to Marvel's frontier hero.
