Crossed Vol. 1 is the foundational nine-issue limited series created by writer Garth Ennis and artist Jacen Burrows
Gabriel Andrade’s art is the perfect foil to Moore’s dense script. Where previous Crossed artists leaned into hyper-detailed viscera, Andrade draws a world that is less bloody and more decayed . His panels are dominated by rust, kudzu vines strangling skyscrapers, and the faded logos of defunct corporations. The violence, when it comes, is quick and stark—a single panel of a hammer meeting a skull, without the splash-page fanfare. This restraint makes the cruelty heavier. It feels real, not operatic. crossed 1 comic
