Clive Barker's The Great and Secret Show #9

Two ordinary-looking figures — a dark-haired man in glasses and a young blonde woman — stand at the center of this striking cover, surrounded by a looming gallery of extraordinary beings rendered in cool, ghostly blues: armored warriors, a towering robot, a shadowy figure in a fedora, a werewolf-like creature, and a host of other unsettling presences. The contrast between the very human pair in the foreground and the supernatural crowd pressing in behind them captures the essence of Clive Barker's imaginative world, where the mundane and the otherworldly collide. IDW's adaptation of Barker's acclaimed novel reaches its ninth issue with a cover that promises the full scope of the story's strange and sprawling cast.
