 What Awaits Them is the recently released collection of the comic works of Liam Cobb. When he burst onto the comics scene in the 2010s, he left an indelible impression with his artwork and form that we can still see today. You might recognise his gleaming, utopic depictions of architecture (or seen the many who have since co-opted the style) but maybe you've never seen his chilling, haunting tales of the tundra of the Old West, or the humid claustrophobia of his ill-fated and helpless tales of the rainforest. It's a book of lush extravagance and bleak reality, which rang true on their original publication and hold even more of a stark prescience today.
