The Massive #4

Issue four of Brian Wood's post-collapse maritime series kicks off "Black Pacific: Mog," the first chapter of a three-part arc. J. P. Leon's cover is a striking collage of tension: a long-haired man in a Ninja logo t-shirt levels a pistol directly at the viewer while a shaven-headed figure looms large in the background, a crowd gathers on a waterfront plaza, a sniper takes aim from the foreground, and military vessels fill the harbor behind them. It's a quietly unsettling composition — muted earth tones and cool blues underscoring a world where environmental catastrophe has given way to something far more dangerous.
