That Texas Blood #16

A blood-soaked evidence bag dominates the cover of That Texas Blood #16, rendered by Jacob Phillips against worn wood-grain — a quietly unsettling image that speaks volumes about the crime-noir world Chris Condon and Phillips have built in the Texas hill country. The sealed bag, stamped with official case-number fields, holds something crimson and indistinct inside, suggesting consequences rather than action. It's a restrained, almost clinical piece of cover art that makes the story title — "The Abandoned Truck and the Damn Stupid Rally" — feel all the more ominous by contrast.
