Seaguy #3

The concluding chapter of Grant Morrison and Cameron Stewart's Vertigo miniseries arrives with a striking image: a hulking, dark-armored figure with glowing red eyes carries the limp form of Seaguy across what appears to be a lunar surface, the luminous curve of Earth hanging in the star-filled space behind them. Cameron Stewart's cover linework is confident and evocative, balancing an almost tender composition against the eerie, otherworldly setting suggested by the issue's title, "Mummy on the Moon." It's a quietly unsettling finale image that captures exactly the strange, melancholy tone that made this 2004 Vertigo series so distinctive.
