Trigger #3

Vertigo's Trigger #3 arrives at the midpoint of "Pulled" with a cover by John Watkiss that commands attention — a lean, tac-geared figure in blue-lensed goggles raises a weapon overhead, its muzzle already blazing, against a bold crimson field repeating an enigmatic logo. The design is sleek and deliberately cool, balancing graphic abstraction with Watkiss's sharp, confident linework. Jason Hall and John Watkiss's mature-readers series continues to look like one of Vertigo's more stylish offerings of 2005.
