The Empty Man #4

Cullen Bunn's unsettling horror series continues with this fourth issue from BOOM! Studios, and the cover alone makes a strong case for the series' atmosphere. A woman in a white shirt gazes away in profile, her expression tense and weathered, framed — almost consumed — by a wreath of dark, glistening crimson matter that surrounds her like a wound. The painterly craft here is genuinely striking, using that contrast of clean white against visceral red to quietly suggest something deeply wrong closing in around her.
