Azrael #32

Azrael looms large and menacing on this August 1997 cover, his glowing yellow eyes cutting through a firestorm of red and orange as his armored gauntlets — blades extended — thrust toward the viewer against a burning cityscape backdrop. The "Nocturnal Terrors!" banner sets a fittingly dark mood for part two of "Angel and the Monster Maker," with a werewolf-themed chapter promising to push DC's most intense street-level avenger into genuinely unsettling territory. Roger Robinson and James Pascoe's cover work captures Azrael at his most imposing, making this one of the more viscerally striking installments of Dennis O'Neil's run on the series.
