The Walking Dead #136

Subtitled "Found," this 2015 entry in Kirkman, Adlard, Gaudiano, and Rathburn's long-running survival saga presents one of the series' most quietly tense kinds of images: two figures observed from behind, crouched in dense foliage, peering out at a massive wooden perimeter wall under a dusky pink sky. Guards are visible atop the wall, and a small group of people moves along its base, suggesting a settled community — watched, perhaps unknowingly, from the tree line. Charlie Adlard's cover art transforms a moment of stillness into something genuinely unnerving, leaving you to wonder whether discovery here means salvation or something far more complicated.
