Steampunk #11

Issue eleven of WildStorm's Steampunk arrives in 2002 with a cover that's equal parts Victorian dread and mechanical nightmare — a tangle of skeletal figures, writhing tubes, and gears bathed in an eerie green monochrome, with a blonde woman caught helplessly in the grip of a massive, grotesque creature whose glowing eyes pierce the chaos. Chris Bachalo's pencils and Richard Friend's inks push every inch of the image to its limit, layering biological horror and industrial machinery into something genuinely unsettling. Marked as a cliffhanger and part three of the "X" storyline, this one carries real momentum for anyone following the series.
