Ant #4

The cover of Ant #4 says it all with its bold tagline "Enter the Dragon!" — and Erik Larsen delivers a striking image of Ant in her red, insectoid suit leaping dynamically above a massive, horned green bruiser who charges forward through a shower of debris. The contrast between the nimble, crimson hero and the hulking powerhouse below her creates an immediate sense of thrilling tension, all set against a dramatic yellow circle that makes both figures pop. Published by Image Comics in 2022 to celebrate the publisher's 30th anniversary, this issue looks like exactly the kind of kinetic, action-packed fun that makes superhero comics so enjoyable.
