The Expanse: Dragon Tooth #9

Nine issues into this twelve-part series, The Expanse: Dragon Tooth delivers another striking cover by Christian Ward — a bearded man's profile rendered in deep blues against a vivid yellow background, his mind literally opening onto a cosmos of swirling nebulae and a spacecraft cutting through the stars. The concentric signal-rings radiating from his ear suggest a mind tuned to frequencies beyond the ordinary, giving the image a quietly unsettling, cerebral weight. With Andy Diggle writing and Francesco Pisa on interior art, this BOOM! Studios series continues to bring the hard-SF tension of The Expanse universe to the page.
