Shaolin Cowboy: Cruel to Be Kin #7

The penultimate chapter of Cruel to Be Kin goes out with a cover that is pure Geof Darrow — a massive, impossibly detailed giant crustacean bristling with chainsaws across its many legs, while a shirtless figure rides atop the creature in apparent triumph and the Shaolin Cowboy himself stands his ground below, looking up at the chaos. Dave Stewart's warm desert palette gives the whole sprawling, meticulously rendered scene a sun-bleached grandeur that makes you want to count every claw. This is 2022 Dark Horse at its most gloriously unhinged, and issue seven promises a finale arc that earns its subtitle.
