Creature Commandos #5

The fifth chapter of DC's 2000 limited series finds the Creature Commandos in full force, with the cover — penciled by Scot Eaton and inked by Ray Kryssing — depicting a fearsome, fanged monster in tactical leather gear striding forward beneath massive bat-like wings while a scatter of armed green-skinned soldiers sprawls defeated across a tiled floor below him. The tagline "Keep 'Em Flying!" perfectly captures the unstoppable momentum radiating from the image. Tim Truman's series continues to deliver a wild blend of military action and monster mayhem that feels entirely its own.
