Fathom #2
Fathom #2 (1998) delivers a pulse-pounding start to Michael Turner and Bill O'Neil’s underwater mystery, with Turner’s striking art and Weems’ sharp inks bringing the chaos of a destroyed research station to life. When a missile tears through the Deep Marine Discovery facility, survivor Aspen discovers her strange connection to the ocean as her body begins to change—just as test pilot Chance watches in stunned disbelief. The cover by Turner and Weems captures the moment’s eerie beauty, setting the tone for a story where the sea holds secrets deeper than anyone imagined.
