Amory Wars #1

The opening chapter of The Amory Wars arrives with a cover by Tony Moore that crackles with raw, sci-fi intensity — a massive, snarling bare-chested warrior tears through a squad of armored soldiers, a glowing energy burst erupting from his chest, while shadowy faces loom on screens in the background and a luminous figure floats in a portal behind him. This first issue of the five-part series brings Claudio Sanchez's science-fiction epic to Image Comics, with interior art by Gus Vazquez and colors by Rex Justice bringing "The Second Stage Turbine Blade: Part 1" to life. If you've been waiting for a sprawling, ambitious space opera to sink into, this is a very promising place to start.
