The Walking Dead #192

Subtitled "Aftermath," this 2019 Image/Skybound chapter finds a hooded, gun-wielding survivor standing alone in the middle of a devastated urban street, bodies of the fallen — human and walker alike — strewn across the ground in every direction. Charlie Adlard's cover work captures a rare, haunting stillness: the figure's expression is tense but resolute against a sickly green sky, the ruined cityscape stretching grimly behind them. Robert Kirkman, Adlard, Stefano Gaudiano, and Cliff Rathburn deliver the kind of quiet, heavy image that reminds you just how far this series has always been willing to go.
