Second Wave: War of the Worlds #5

In "New America," the tension reaches a breaking point as the Sheriff arrests Miles, Duke, and James, leaving Clint and Gladys to deal with the Sheriff’s severely burned brother. Gladys makes a grim decision to end his suffering, then drugs Clint before the Sheriff prepares to execute James for theft—only for a sudden, mysterious arrival to scatter the group and shatter the moment. Written by Michael Alan Nelson and illustrated by Chee, with letters by Ed Dukeshire and a striking cover by Sunder Raj, this issue delivers a pulse-pounding escalation in the war-torn landscape of Second Wave: War of the Worlds.
