Cosmic Odyssey #3

Book Three of Jim Starlin's ambitious 1988 DC miniseries arrives with a Mike Mignola cover that crackles with urgency — a caped, snarling figure in red and gold lunges forward while a heavily armored warrior stands ready behind him, both dwarfed by a looming mechanical giant whose cables and hydraulics fill the sky above. The subtitle "Decisions" hints at a story reaching a pivotal crossroads, and Mignola's bold compositions and Steve Oliff's warm, fiery palette make this one of the most visually arresting covers in the series. With Starlin writing and Mignola on art, Cosmic Odyssey #3 delivers the kind of large-scale DC storytelling that made 1988 such a memorable year for the medium.
