Summary:

KELLY SUE DECONNICK (Avengers Assemble, Captain Marvel) & EMMA RÍOS (Dr. Strange, Osborn) reunite to bring you an all-new ongoing series that marries the magical realism of Sandman with the western brutality of Preacher. Death's daughter rides the wind on a horse made of smoke and her face bears the skull marks of her father. Her tale of retribution is as beautifully lush as it is unflinchingly savage.

This was very nearly a tie between Pretty Deadly and Monstress (elsewhere on this list), but Emma Ríos is just soooo good. Her style is both wispy and calculated, a conflicting yet complementary match between heavy linework and delicate features. She is as uncompromising as Valentine De Landro and as subtly expressive as Fiona Staples. And with Jordie Bellaire’s gorgeous coloring, Pretty Deadly goes from looking like a dime-a-dozen western reboot to a lurid update à la technicolor Sergio Leone.
