Axis: Hobgoblin #2

Part of Marvel's AXIS event, this 2015 tie-in spins off with a gleefully off-kilter take on one of Spider-Man's most recognizable foes. Javier Rodríguez's cover says it all: a grinning, red-eyed Hobgoblin in his orange hood flashes two enthusiastic thumbs-up while wearing a T-shirt that reads "Got a Problem? Call Hobgoblin!" — a pitch-perfect visual gag that sets the tone for this decidedly unconventional villain-turned-problem-solver. If you've ever wondered what a cheerfully entrepreneurial Hobgoblin might look like, this cover delivers the answer with infectious charm.
