100 Bullets #3

This third collected volume of Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso's Eisner Award-winning Vertigo series opens the "Hang Up on the Hang Low" arc with a cover that immediately commands attention. Two imposing figures — one in a jersey and shades, the other in a fedora — dominate the blue-toned composition, surrounded by a collage of red-tinted vignettes depicting gunmen, a mysterious woman, a suited figure, and a hand bearing a Roman numeral XIII, hinting at the morally tangled world within. The cover art by Johnson and Risso perfectly captures the series' signature noir atmosphere — cool, dangerous, and impossible to look away from.
