The cover for Dynamite’s new series Bring the Thunder is an example of Alex Ross’s best work. It’s dynamic and it promises a story that is both dramatic and sci-fi. I’m sometimes left cold by the artist’s work—mainly if it’s just a painting of a character, or characters, simply standing there.
Bring the Thunder is a new comic book with a story by Ross and written by Jai Nitz (Kato: Origins) with art by Wilson Tortosa (Ross is also on cover duty for the book). Dynamite describes the new book as follows:
“Wayne Russell is an elite para-rescue jumper in the Air Force serving in Afghanistan. He leads the most rigorously trained troops on the most dangerous missions into enemy territory. During a deadly mission, Wayne’s team is ambushed. Mortally wounded, Wayne finds and fires an experimental weapon, but the weapon malfunctions. The result will change Wayne and warfare forever.”
Bring the Thunder is scheduled for release in December.
