Babe #3

The penultimate chapter of John Byrne's four-issue Dark Horse Legend miniseries delivers a cover that crackles with urgent energy: red-haired Babe charges forward in a fierce combat stance, pulling two frightened teenagers to safety while a third figure is sent flying — all set against the looming blue silhouette of a massive, unseen threat. Byrne's cover art (inked by Byrne himself) frames the action with a real sense of scale and danger, hinting that whatever casts that enormous shadow is not to be trifled with. The cover also teases the introduction of the Proto Tykes, making this 1994 issue a compelling stop in Babe's ongoing adventure.
