Stillwater #16

A woman in a long Victorian-era dress stands with her back to us, rifle in hand, surveying a town consumed by fire and billowing smoke on the horizon — it's a striking, wordless image that speaks volumes about what "For Eternity" might cost. Ramón K. Pérez's cover work, warmed beautifully by Mike Spicer's orange-and-crimson palette, gives the scene a timeless, almost mythic weight that suits a series about immortality and consequence. Chip Zdarsky's Stillwater continues to be one of Image Comics' most quietly compelling titles, and issue #16 looks like it's raising the stakes considerably.
