The Beauty #29

Issue #29 of Image's The Beauty arrives with a striking cover by Jeremy Haun — a woman with a natural afro, hoop earrings, and a cool blue pallor stands mid-stride, mouth open in what reads as either a cry or a snarl, her expression unsettling despite her composed, fashionable appearance. Bold diagonal bands of orange, blue, and black slice across the background, giving the image a charged, graphic-design energy that perfectly captures the series' blend of style and unease. If you've been following this sharp, unconventional series, issue #29 looks like exactly the right moment to stay invested.
