Slaughterhouse-Five #[nn]

Against a bold red background filled with falling bombs, a lone silhouetted figure is caught in a stark white spotlight beneath the looming shadow of a soldier's helmet — Albert Monteys and Scott Newman's cover art sets a haunting, immediately arresting tone for this 2020 Boom! Studios graphic novel adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five. The adaptation is scripted by Ryan North with Monteys handling art, inks, colors, and letters throughout. It's a handsome, complete volume that brings one of literature's most distinctive anti-war voices into the comics medium with evident care and craft.
