Southern Bastards #15

Jason Aaron and Jason Latour's Southern Bastards returns with issue #15, kicking off "Gut Check Part One" with a cover drenched in blood-red menace. The image pulls no punches: a fierce woman charges forward with fists raised, flanked by a gaunt, weapon-wielding older man and a crouching younger figure, while snarling dogs surge alongside them — all bearing down on a looming, partially visible figure in the foreground. Latour's artwork captures the raw, dangerous energy that makes this series one of Image's most gripping crime dramas of 2016.
