Artifacts #18

Part five of the "New Creation" arc finds Top Cow's supernatural ensemble at a brooding crossroads, with this striking cover presenting a dark-haired figure hunched under the weight of a glowing cross emblem, his arm traced with vivid red markings, while a confident red-haired woman in a corset looks on from above — and the looming shadow of a massive winged dragon fills the background. Ron Marz's writing and Stjepan Sejic's atmospheric painted art make this one of Top Cow's most visually arresting ongoing series, blending demonology and artifact-fueled mythology into something genuinely compelling. If you've been following the "Rebirth" era of the Top Cow Universe, this issue's tense, layered cover promises the arc is building toward something significant.
