Black Bolt #2

The Inhuman king stands bound in heavy chains atop a strange, geometric prison structure floating against a vast star-field — it's a striking image that captures a ruler stripped of his throne and his freedom. Christian Ward's painted cover radiates that sense of cosmic unease that earned this series its "bewitchingly strange" reputation, with crackling energy radiating from Black Bolt's masked face suggesting his voice power strains just beneath the surface. Saladin Ahmed and Ward's 2017 series was already turning heads, and this second issue promises to deepen the mystery of how Attilan's silent king ended up in the most unusual captivity imaginable.
