Backlash #31

Backlash #31 brings a charged confrontation right to the cover, where a green-armored figure and a masked, red-cowled hero face off against a menacing woman in sleek black-and-purple armor with glowing green eyes — tension crackling between every figure in the composition. Brett Booth's pencils and Tom McWeeney's inks deliver a dynamic, crowded clash that captures the kinetic energy this series was known for in 1997. With Sean Ruffner and Booth co-writing and Pete Woods among the interior artists, this late-run issue promises the action-heavy WildStorm-era storytelling fans of the title came to expect.
