Dead@17: The Blasphemy Throne #4

The penultimate chapter of The Blasphemy Throne arc arrives with a cover that puts its defiant protagonist front and center — clad in a torn red tank and draped in a dark cloak, she stands her ground against a backdrop crowded with charged symbols: an anarchy sign, a hammer and sickle, a peace symbol, a crescent and star, a dollar sign, and more, all rendered in a gritty, graffiti-splattered style. The composition captures the series' recurring tension between one young woman and the overwhelming forces — ideological, spiritual, and otherwise — pressing in around her. Published by Image in 2014, this issue promises all the sharp edges and dark atmosphere that have made Dead@17 a compelling supernatural punk ride.
