Last month, we chatted with Nate Cosby and Ben McCool about the first arc of Pigs, as well as gave you a brief exclusive preview of the fifth issue. Now, as the second arc begins, we’re here to give you even more, as we give you an exclusive first look at the next issue.
Pigs #5 kicks off the second arc of the book with a sinister new character and a dynamite cover by Dave Gibbons, and finds the gang attempting to break into prison on orders for a new mission. As you may have heard, the sixth issue of the book caused some light bit of controversy due to the swastika covered book (which we discussed with Cosby and McCool in our chat), and you’ll get your first look at the reason behind the cover in this issue, and please, allow us to tease you for a moment — it is quite a doozy.
