Batman Beyond #7

Batman Beyond soars into a turning point with issue #7, its cover — penciled and inked by Philip Tan — showing the sleek black-and-red Batman Beyond suit cutting dramatically through a blazing golden skyline of towering futuristic skyscrapers, cape flared wide as the figure dives forward into the light. The tagline "A New Dawn" sets an optimistic, forward-charging tone that feels genuinely earned against that warm, radiant backdrop. With Dan Jurgens writing and Marcelo Maiolo's colors lending the whole thing that burnished glow, this February 2016 installment looks like a great entry point into the "City of Yesterday" arc.
