Stillwater #17

Ramón K. Pérez's cover for Stillwater #17 is a striking image: a red-haired, bearded man in a torn-open white shirt goes airborne against a cool blue forest backdrop, his expression caught somewhere between fury and panic, wounds visible on his torso. The limited palette — warm oranges and reds against muted blues — gives the scene an eerie, unsettling tension that's pure Pérez. Chip Zdarsky's ongoing series continues with "Chapter Seventeen: Hearts and Minds," and this cover makes a compelling case that things in Stillwater are far from settled.
