“Doing Battle”

In "Doing Battle," Kurt Busiek crafts a quietly intense story as Quarrel grapples with the tension between seeking a normal life with MPH and the pull of his past with Crackerjack. With Brent Eric Anderson's expressive art and Alex Sinclair's subtle coloring, the issue captures the weight of choices, as Crackerjack's desperate search for a way to keep fighting sets off a chain of complications. Alex Ross's striking cover perfectly frames the emotional stakes of the moment.
