“Life During Wartime Part Four: The Diplomacy of Monsters”

Frank Quitely's striking cover for this December 2004 Vertigo issue arrests the eye immediately — a red-bathed figure hangs suspended upside down from a gnarled tree branch against a deep purple, star-scattered night sky, vulnerable yet oddly suspended between worlds. It's a haunting image that suits the subtitle "The Diplomacy of Monsters" perfectly, suggesting precarious negotiations in some dark, magical realm. Si Spencer and Dean Ormston's Books of Magick: Life During Wartime continues to carve out its own unsettling corner of the DC/Vertigo universe with this fourth chapter.
