Azrael #19

Azrael looms at the center of this fiery cover — arms spread wide, bladed gauntlets gleaming in gold against a wall of explosion and flying debris — every inch the avenging angel the title promises. The tagline "Angel in Flames!" says it all, and Barry Kitson and James Pascoe deliver a cover that crackles with heat and menace. Part three of the "Save the Innocents" arc, written by Dennis O'Neil, this 1996 issue finds DC's most volatile guardian at what looks like the absolute center of the storm.
