Big Bang Comics #9

Big Bang Comics #9 brings readers a vivid pulp-science-fiction atmosphere straight from 1997 Image, with cover art by Jeff Weigel showcasing a dramatic confrontation between a winged, Egyptian-styled hero — the Sphinx — and a pair of menacing robotic figures with exposed mechanical joints and unsettling goggle eyes, all set against a lurid purple and orange backdrop. The cover promises two features for the price of one, announcing the Sphinx's very own adventure in "The Deeds of the Doomsayer" alongside the return of the Blitz. Weigel's retro-tinged linework captures the earnest energy of golden-age superhero homage that Big Bang Comics does so well.
