Whiteout

Greg Rucka and Steve Lieber brought a stark, chilling realism to comics with Whiteout, a four-issue miniseries from Onie Press that launched in 1998. Set in the unforgiving landscape of Antarctica, it follows a U.S. marshal investigating a murder at a remote research station, blending a taut crime thriller with the brutal isolation of its setting. The series is a landmark in crime comics, celebrated for its meticulous research and Lieber's evocative, bone-white art that makes the cold a character in itself.
