Breach #9

The cover of Breach #9 sets an quietly unsettling tone: a young girl sits cross-legged on rocky ground at night, a small ripple of energy at her fingertips, while the enormous translucent silhouette of a powerful, horned figure looms behind her beneath a full moon — and the tagline says it all: "He's Ba-aaaaack!" Marcos Martín's cover art balances vulnerability and menace with a cool blue palette that's genuinely striking. With Bob Harras writing and Javier Pulido on interior art, this November 2005 chapter — titled "Meg" — looks like a compelling turning point in DC's underappreciated series.
