By Night #11

John Allison's By Night reaches issue #11 with a cover that puts a lone human figure before what feels unmistakably like a tribunal — a wolflike creature perched atop a raised platform flanked by an elf, a horned figure, a green-skinned creature, and a glowing ghost-like being with a tiny companion, all framed by a dramatic crescent moon and mountain vista. Christine Larsen's artwork gives this gathering of otherworldly judges a wonderfully eerie yet playful energy, with cool purples and blues setting a mood that's equal parts foreboding and fantastical. If you've been following this BOOM! Box series, this penultimate chapter looks like it's building toward something big.
