The Boys: Butcher, Baker, Candlestickmaker #6

The concluding issue of this Boys spinoff miniseries brings Darick Robertson's cover art to a quietly devastating close — two silhouetted figures standing among grave markers at sunset, the warm amber sky and scattering leaves lending the scene an unmistakable air of grief and finality. That solitary, long-coated figure facing a headstone captures everything Garth Ennis's run at Dynamite has built toward: a man, a loss, and a reckoning. It's a remarkably understated image for such a charged series, and a fitting send-off to one of comics' most compelling antiheroes.
