The Wake #1 by Scott Snyder

A tense, cinematic opening that sends a deep-sea research mission spiraling into horror: when an exploratory team discovers a previously unknown, almost primordial creature in the ocean depths, the incident triggers secrecy, military and corporate intervention, and scientific obsession, while hints of a far-future timeline suggest the encounter’s catastrophic, evolutionary consequences for humanity—blending aquatic horror, ecological dread, and speculative science into a claustrophobic, suspenseful first issue.
