Something Epic #4

Something Epic #4 from Image Comics presents a wonderfully chaotic ensemble on its cover, with a massive horned creature dominating the center, surrounded by a sprawling cast that includes a caped hero, a gun-toting figure in a leather jacket, a cartoon-like wide-eyed girl, a witch, a bulldog with a collar, a levitating car, and more — all framed by crackling purple lightning and an ornate golden portal. The sheer variety of characters hints at a story that gleefully blends genres, from superhero action to dark fantasy to something altogether stranger. Cover art by Szymon Kudranski, who also writes and illustrates the series, crackles with the kind of ambition that makes this 2023 Image title hard to put down.
