The Walking Dead Deluxe #23

The Walking Dead Deluxe #23 delivers one of the series' most viscerally striking covers, with David Finch's pencils and inks depicting two bloodied, battered figures sprawled across a tile floor — one face-up, reaching desperately, the other face-down and motionless in a spreading pool of crimson. Dave McCaig's coloring makes every detail hit hard, from the bruised flesh to the stark red against cold grey tiles. Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard's post-apocalyptic saga continues here in vivid, full-color glory — a 2021 presentation that reminds you exactly why this series earned its devoted following.
