About the series
In 2018, Image Comics offered a taste of an ambitious new series with this Free Comic Book Day special by the acclaimed team of writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Marcos Martín. Barrier follows a non-English-speaking Honduran rancher and a grumpy Texas cowboy whose lives collide in a tense, violent encounter on the U.S.-Mexico border—only to be interrupted by something far beyond their world. This single-issue preview, presented almost entirely without dialogue, showcases the duo’s signature blend of character-driven storytelling and striking visual narrative. It stands as a bold, minimalist introduction to a series that redefines the modern western with a sci-fi twist.
