The Walking Dead #97 kicks off "Something to Fear Part One" with a cover that sets an unmistakably menacing tone — a hulking, silhouetted figure grips a blood-soaked chainsaw, face lost in shadow, radiating the kind of threat that stops you cold. Charlie Adlard's stark, high-contrast artwork makes that single image hit harder than a full splash page ever could. Published in 2012 as part of Image's 20th anniversary year, this is the opening chapter of what the title alone promises will be a pivotal turn for Robert Kirkman's long-running survival epic.
