Underheist #3

The Laphams and colorist Hilary Jenkins deliver a wonderfully unnerving collage for this third issue of Underheist — a massive revolver and scattered pills dominate the center, while sinuous tentacles curl around a mosaic of scenes featuring a cast of characters caught in moments of chaos, romance, and dread. It's the kind of cover that rewards a long look, with each vignette hinting at a story layered with crime, consequence, and something decidedly strange lurking beneath the surface. Boom! Studios continues to give this series a bold, distinctive visual identity that makes it hard to ignore on any shelf.
