Something Is Killing the Children #39

Werther Dell'Edera's cover for issue #39 pulls you in close — almost uncomfortably so — with a figure whose pale, disheveled hair falls across a skull-like face, a single green eye peering out with cold intensity. It's a quietly unnerving portrait that captures everything this BOOM! Studios series does so well: dread that lives in the details. James Tynion IV and Dell'Edera continue "Road Stories Part Four," with Miquel Muerto's muted blues and purples giving the image a bruised, twilight menace that lingers long after you set it down.
