Infinite Dark #2

Infinite Dark #2 from Image/Top Cow pulls you deeper into its unsettling sci-fi atmosphere, with a lone figure in a sleek suit — blue-haired and tense — stepping cautiously through a ruined, debris-strewn corridor while an enormous, dripping shadow-creature looms on the wall beside them. The scale contrast between the small human and that towering, distorted silhouette gives the cover an immediate sense of dread that Ryan Cady, Andrea Mutti, and K. Michael Russell have crafted with real restraint and skill. If the first issue left you curious about what lurks in the dark between the stars, this 2018 installment makes very clear that the answer is something profoundly wrong.
