This Looks Cool: Image's Ghost Cage features the return of Nick Dragotta to monthly comics!

Welcome to a new feature we're trying out here at Panel Patter, "This Looks Cool!" It's a chance for us to highlight an upcoming series we think Panel Patter readers might be interested in checking out and putting on their advanced pull lists.

Did you read East of West? If not, stop what you're doing right now and go read the entire 45-isue story. East of West (written by Jonathan Hickman, with art by Nick Dragotta and colors by Frank Martin) is one of my favorite comics ever and was on my list of favorite comics of the decade. Dragotta has an amazing, kinetic style, with some of the coolest visuals I've literally ever seen in a comic. He's a master of action, and tension. His style feels manga-influenced but is immediately recognizable as his own thing. But I don't think I'd seen any comics work from Dragotta in a little while, so I'm thrilled to see him return, even if this is just a short series of a few issues. The premise sounds very cool. Also, this book has letters and design by Rus Wooton, covers colored by Frank Martin, and edits by David Brothers. That's a fantastic team. Get this comic!
