Southern Cross #6 (2015) marks the explosive conclusion to the first arc of this brooding sci-fi horror saga from Image Comics, written by Becky Cloonan, with art by Andy Belanger and colours by Lee Loughridge. This issue brings together all the building tension, unanswered questions, and simmering paranoia into a climactic and visually stunning finale—one that is as emotionally raw as it is unnerving.

After five issues of haunting suspense and escalating dread, Alex Braith’s journey aboard the Southern Cross reaches a breaking point. The truth about her sister’s death, the Corporation’s hidden motives, and the bizarre, reality-warping energy source aboard the ship all collide in a final act that is both explosive and deeply psychological. Cloonan masterfully weaves in themes of grief, identity, and existential dread, giving readers a payoff that doesn’t rely on easy resolution but rather embraces the surreal and unknown.

This chapter is filled with intensity, chaos, and profound revelation. Alex is forced to confront not just the ship’s buried secrets, but her own fractured psyche. The boundary between hallucination and reality finally collapses, and readers are pulled headfirst into a surreal climax that reshapes everything we thought we knew about the series.

Andy Belanger unleashes some of his most dynamic and unsettling artwork to date. Page layouts twist and splinter as the ship itself seems to break apart under the weight of its cosmic horror. His mechanical, gritty linework is balanced by the more dreamlike, fluid imagery of Alex’s inner journey—creating a powerful visual duality. Lee Loughridge’s colours enhance this effect with washes of electric blue, haunting red, and sickly green that mirror the emotional and supernatural storm brewing at the heart of the story.

Southern Cross #6 doesn’t just conclude a narrative arc—it elevates the entire series to another level, proving this is more than a mystery; it’s a philosophical nightmare, a journey through grief and trauma told through the language of speculative fiction and horror.
