Ferro City #4

Jason Armstrong's sepia-drenched "robot pulp noir science fiction" reaches its fourth chapter with a cover that pitches a wide-eyed man headlong through a gritty urban streetscape, tumbling past rooftops and sending debris flying in every direction. The moody, high-contrast palette perfectly captures the hard-boiled atmosphere that defines Ferro City's world of steel and shadows. If you've been following this 2005 Image series, "The Medusa Key" arc is clearly not letting up on the tension.
