Arrowsmith Behind Enemy Lines #3

The enchanted forest on Carlos Pacheco and José Rafael Fonteriz's cover — all towering mushrooms, ancient gnarled trees, and a shimmering waterfall — sets a hauntingly beautiful stage for issue three of Arrowsmith: Behind Enemy Lines. Two small winged figures crackle with brilliant bursts of magical energy in the foreground, while a third glowing fairy-like form hovers in the misty distance, suggesting a confrontation deep in this otherworldly wilderness. Kurt Busiek, Pacheco, and their collaborators continue to deliver a fantasy-war series with a visual imagination that feels genuinely unlike anything else at Image in 2022.
