Aliens vs. Predator: Three World War #4

The cover by Raymond Swanland drops you straight into the chaos of a three-way clash, with a heavily armored Predator at the center, a shrieking Xenomorph lunging from above, and a human soldier bracing with a heavy weapon amid a battlefield swirling with debris and bodies. The gritty, painterly composition captures the brutal tension that defines this mid-series chapter of Three World War, with each faction pressing hard against the others in a collision of firepower and ferocity. Randy Stradley, Rick Leonardi, and Mark Pennington bring the interior pages of this 2010 Dark Horse series, making issue #4 a satisfying entry point into the escalating mayhem.
