Star Wars: Bounty Hunters #22

Tied into the sweeping Crimson Reign crossover event, Star Wars: Bounty Hunters #22 drops a ragtag crew of hunters — including a purple-haired human woman, a reptilian alien, and several armed companions — right into the path of an advancing squad of armored soldiers pouring through a smoke-and-fire-filled corridor. The cover by Giuseppe Camuncoli captures the claustrophobic intensity of that standoff beautifully, with explosions lighting up the background and weapons raised on both sides. With Ethan Sacks writing and Paolo Villanelli and Arif Prianto bringing the visuals to life inside, this 2022 issue promises the kind of gritty, galaxy-spanning chaos the title does so well.
