Backlash #1

Backlash #1 (1994) kicks off with a high-stakes mission when the titular hero breaks Taboo out of a maximum-security Stormwatch facility, seeking her aid in stopping the Daemonite S'yrn—whose actions have left his lover, Diane, in a coma. Written by Jeff Mariotte and Sean Ruffner, with art and cover by Brett Booth, the issue blends tense action with personal stakes, all rendered in bold, dynamic style by Booth and a team of inkers including Alex Garner and Sal Regla, with vibrant colors by Wendy Fouts and Wildstorm Effects.
