The Walking Dead #18

A somber group of survivors — a bearded man in a sheriff's badge and bloodied jacket standing at the center, flanked by a young woman, another bearded figure, and several others against a prison yard backdrop of chain-link fences and a guard tower at dusk — sets a tense, melancholy mood on this 2005 Image Comics entry. Looming ominously above them all, dangling bare feet descend from the top of the cover, an image that speaks volumes without saying a word. Tony Moore's cover art delivers the kind of quiet dread that makes The Walking Dead such a compelling read.
