Description
I said recently that I’d like to eventually populate my featured gallery with 12 complete issues that were special to me. This cover would definitely be a step in that direction for me. I love this title - the synthesis of writing and artwork is perfect. And I’d make a case for this being the best cover thus far. Many thanks to Andrew and Paolo for helping me out, to Martin for parting with this and putting a truly tremendous amount of effort into his artistic vision. Thanks to JTIV for a compelling, horrifying, pretty damn convincing story. If you’re not reading this, please check it out.

Update May 24th, 2021 - Noice! Looks like this is the second trade cover too! Deservedly so.

Update October 22nd, 2021 - Also used as a reprint cover with a different color scheme.

You should! You spend way too much time with your head in the clouds, daydreaming and such. Get back to the ground, my friend, or even the pipes running below the ground.

I've never seen anything like it. Pictures won't even convey the madness.

You have no idea... Imagine if an exercise machine could, in the dead of night, wrench itself off the wall and lumber over to the sleeping inhabitants of the domicile, looming menacingly over their frail, sleeping forms. It brandishes its wire cords high in the air, praparing for a fatal strike...
