The Manhattan Projects #5

The Manhattan Projects #5 brings its signature design sensibility front and center with a striking cover by Jonathan Hickman — a bold color-spectrum ring shifting from cool blues to warm reds, framing the series' clean typographic treatment and the evocative subtitle "Horizon." The cover's premise-text poses the series' central "what if" with quiet menace: what if everything about the atomic age's brightest minds… went wrong? Jonathan Hickman and Nick Pitarra's 2012 Image series continues to make unconventional comics feel genuinely thrilling.
