Captain Midnight #13

Captain Midnight finds himself in serious trouble on this 2014 Dark Horse cover by Dustin Nguyen, where the red-and-yellow-suited hero is tangled and dragged upward by a chaotic mass of wires and mechanical tendrils — the tagline "Man Versus Machine!" says it all. The dynamic, almost freefall composition makes the threat feel genuinely overwhelming, with cables of every color whipping around him against a stark, geometric background. Joshua Williamson and Manuel Garcia's series continues to put its WWII-era adventurer through the wringer in fine style.
