15-Love #3

The finale of Marvel's three-part tennis drama arrives with a cover by Sho Murase that crackles with kinetic energy — a determined young blonde woman winds up for a powerful groundstroke, racket raised and hair flying, with a bright yellow tennis ball blurring toward the viewer at the center of the action. Writer Andi Watson and artist Tommy Ohtsuka bring their sports story to a close with this 2011 limited series conclusion, and Murase's cover captures exactly the kind of high-stakes, in-the-moment intensity that makes sports storytelling so compelling. If you've been following this manga-influenced Marvel series, issue three promises to deliver the payoff.
