Alien Legion #12

From Epic Comics' science-fiction series comes Alien Legion #12, cover-dated February 1986, featuring a kinetic cover by penciler Carl Potts and inker Frank Cirocco that throws the Legion's diverse squad of soldiers — humans, reptilian aliens, and a leonine warrior among them — into a chaotic, weapons-blazing melee against a vivid yellow backdrop. The sheer variety of species and armaments on display captures exactly what makes this Marvel/Epic title so distinctive: a genuinely motley crew of interstellar fighters who look like they've earned every scar. Inside, the creative team of writers Carl Potts and Alan Zelenetz, artist Larry Stroman, and inkers Randy Emberlin and Chris Warner deliver "Hollow Harvest," promising the gritty, imaginative storytelling that defined this series in the mid-eighties.
