Ripperland #2

The ornate cover of Ripperland #2 sets a richly theatrical stage — a commanding figure in formal evening wear dominates the foreground, while a woman in the mid-ground levels a pistol with cool determination, and flamboyant performers (a ballerina and a harlequin-like figure) swirl against a grand, flame-lit building draped in billowing crimson. Alessandro Oliveri's cover art, colored by Francesca Vivaldi, blends Victorian grandeur with something far more dangerous lurking beneath the spectacle. Steve Orlando and John Harris Dunning's Dark Horse series continues to look like a genuinely compelling blend of period atmosphere and gaslit menace.
