Survivors' Club #2

Vertigo's Survivors' Club #2 opens on a deeply unsettling note, with Bill Sienkiewicz's cover depicting a pale, contorted figure clutching a dangling chain and handcuff against a consuming darkness — an image that feels simultaneously fragile and deeply threatening. The muted, painterly tones create a mood that's hard to shake, perfectly in tune with Kieron Gillen's blurb describing the series as "human, bleak, funny and utterly compulsive." With Lauren Beukes and Dale Halvorsen writing and Ryan Kelly and Eva de la Cruz bringing the interior to life, this mature-readers horror series wastes no time establishing that survival comes at a cost.
