Undiscovered Country #29

Snyder, Soule, and Camuncoli's boundary-pushing Image series reaches issue #29 with a cover that radiates quiet dread: a mechanical, armored figure stands atop what appears to be a tank-treaded platform adrift in a blood-red flood, gripping a long staff and looming over a fallen human body, while massive boulders hang suspended in the crimson air above a narrow canyon. Giuseppe Camuncoli handles both the pencils and inks here, and the restrained palette — stark whites, inky blacks, and that unsettling wash of red — gives the image a stark, almost mythological weight. If you've been following Undiscovered Country, this cover alone makes a compelling case that the series hasn't lost a step.
