2000 AD #1373

This January 2004 prog from Britain's beloved weekly anthology wastes no time setting an ominous tone — Steve Yeowell's cover depicts a winged, snarling creature diving talons-first toward a dark-jacketed figure clutching a cane, with another harpy visible in the skies above, all framed by the stark warning "Death from Above!" The header teases that Danger faces a full-on harpy blitzkrieg in The Red Seas, promising aerial chaos within. It's a sharp, kinetic cover that captures exactly the kind of pulpy adventure that has kept 2000 AD readers coming back week after week.
