Batwing #28

This striking New 52 issue presents a split-image portrait of Batwing — his armored cowl on one side, the determined face of the man beneath the mask on the other — rendered in a cool blue palette that gives the composition an almost meditative quality. The fragmented, puzzle-like design connecting both halves suggests themes of dual identity at the heart of this 2014 chapter from writers Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti. Cover art by Mike McKone delivers a sharp, quietly powerful image that stands apart from the typical action-heavy superhero cover.
