The Humans #3

The cover of The Humans #3 pulls you straight into the jungle, where a figure wearing a "Humans — Vietnam" biker vest stands cornered against a massive tree, surrounded by a ring of armed, snarling ape soldiers in conical hats and military fatigues. Tom Neely's linework — rendered with bold inks and Kristina Collantes's vivid, sun-drenched colors — gives the dense foliage and menacing faces an intensity that's hard to shake. Keenan Marshall Keller's "Long Road Back from Hell" tagline says it all: this 2015 Image series keeps its outlaw-ape world thorny and dangerous in equal measure.
