Jungle #4 (Of 5)

Jungle #4 is a 40-page, black-and-white entry in the five-issue miniseries that follows The Jungle’s surreal, dangerous world. In this Queenie-centered installment, Johnny is still recovering from last issue’s beatdown as we glimpse life beyond The Jungle’s walls. The story shifts to mid-70s Los Angeles, where Queenie juggles a rocky family situation and a dead-end job while secretly plotting to free friends and dismantle the oppressive human regime inside The Jungle. Keenan Marshall Keller’s writing tightens the character-driven drama, grounding the uncanny premise in human stakes, while Tom Neely’s stark, kinetic art brings the heat of the streets and the shadows of a strange, enclosed world to vivid life. This issue also features letters from Doc and Karns, grounding the fantasy with real-world texture. A bold, mature comic that blends ongoing mythology with intimate personal moments and a plan to challenge control within The Jungle.
