The Adventures of Bayou Billy #2

Based on the video game hero brought to comics by Archie's Adventure Series, issue #2 of The Adventures of Bayou Billy puts its rugged, headband-wearing protagonist front and center — crouched low, knife in hand, surrounded by crates marked "TNT," "Danger," and "Dynamite" as flames lick the floor around him. The title "Inferno" promises exactly the kind of heat this cover delivers, with Billy's intense expression and the explosive-laden environment selling the tension without saying a word. Amanda Conner handles both pencils and inks, and her confident linework gives Billy a gritty, kinetic presence that fits the swamp-tough character perfectly.
