Time Before Time #2

The cover of Time Before Time #2 — rendered in striking black, white, and yellow by Declan Shalvey — puts a young figure in motion, running urgently away from a massive explosion of debris and billowing smoke, with shattered yellow machinery scattered across the ground around them. There's real kinetic energy here: the lone figure sprinting through chaos sets a tone that's equal parts science fiction thriller and desperate survival story. Writers Shalvey and McConville, with art by Joe Palmer and colors by Chris O'Halloran, are clearly building something with genuine momentum in this second issue from Image Comics.
