Captain Britain and MI13 #3

Part of Marvel's 2008 Secret Invasion crossover event, this third chapter of "The Guns of Avalon" delivers a striking cover by Bryan Hitch — a close, intense image of a wild-eyed, snarling woman in a red-and-gold costume, her blonde hair flying as she tears into what appears to be a grotesque, monstrous figure with her bare hands. The raw ferocity on display sets a genuinely unsettling tone, hinting at the brutal, high-stakes conflict gripping Britain's supernatural defenders. With Paul Cornell writing and Leonard Kirk on interior art, this series was proving itself one of 2008's most compelling reads.
