A Kingdom of Quartz #2

Bomhat's dreamy yet haunted art style is on full display in this second volume of *A Kingdom of Quartz*, as a winged young man with violet eyes stands bloodied — wounds marking both his face and chest — while gripping an ornate, star-hilted sword against a soft, luminous sky. The tension between his ethereal feathered wings and the very mortal damage he's sustained gives this cover a striking emotional weight that pulls you in immediately. If volume one left you curious about where this fantastical world was heading, the battered resolve on this figure's face makes volume two feel like an essential next step.
