The Walking Dead #108

A regal, contemplative figure seated on a stone throne dominates this 2013 Image Comics entry — white-dreaded hair adorned with feathers, a staff laid across his lap, and a tiger crouching watchfully at his side paint a striking portrait of authority in the apocalypse. Charlie Adlard's cover art gives the character a quiet, measured intensity that feels far removed from the series' usual chaos. Robert Kirkman and Adlard's long-running collaboration continues to find compelling new corners of this post-outbreak world.
