Section Zero #3

Part 3 of "Sacrifices Must Be Made" finds Section Zero — the team dedicated to "protecting mankind from everything that doesn't exist" — in spectacularly dire straits, as Tom Grummett and Karl Kesel's cover depicts a man bound with rope and clutching an 8th Avenue street sign while a green insectoid creature clings to his back, all surrounded by the massive coiled bodies of enormous serpentine monsters rising from rubble. It's a beautifully composed image of desperate survival amid urban destruction, rendered with Grummett's kinetic linework and Kesel's inks giving every scale and shadow real weight. If this series from Image/Shadowline has been on your radar, this issue's cover alone makes a compelling case for catching up.
