Scales & Scoundrels #3

There's something wonderfully freeing about this cover for Scales & Scoundrels #3 — a white-haired figure in warm orange-and-brown garb leaps exuberantly through an abstract sky of soft purple and lavender washes, arms raised in what reads as pure, unbothered joy. Galaad's art strikes a lovely balance between loose, painterly atmosphere and crisp character design, giving the whole image an airy, adventurous energy that feels right at home in Image's 2017 lineup. If this series has been on your radar, issue three's cover alone makes a compelling case to jump in.
