“The Music of the Spheres, Part 4: Pericynthion”

The penultimate chapter of this eight-part DC series delivers a genuinely striking cover by Mario Alberti — a massive, shadowy face dominates the composition while a smaller human figure strains against crackling lightning and fiery energy at its center, visually embodying the tagline "hero and villain in one man" for Eclipso. Both Eclipso and Doctor Fate headline this issue, and with writers Steve Gerber and Adam Beechen alongside artist Justiniano, the dual-feature format promises plenty of supernatural tension as "Countdown to Mystery" barrels toward its conclusion.
