The Boys: Butcher, Baker, Candlestickmaker #5

This penultimate chapter of Dynamite's The Boys spin-off zeroes in on Billy Butcher's origins with Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson at the helm. Robertson's cover sets a quietly unsettling tone — a dark-coated figure armed with a rifle hovers impossibly above a snow-dusted cabin roof, smoke curling from the chimney against a steel-grey winter sky, pine trees flanking the scene like silent sentinels. It's a striking image that balances the mundane and the menacing, perfectly in keeping with the raw, personal story this series has been telling.
