Damsels #9

Dynamite's Damsels #9 surrounds a determined young woman at the cover's center with a striking circle of looming faces — two gaunt, monstrous figures above, a sharp-eared fae figure to the lower left, and a golden-haired woman below — all framing a glowing, tentacled supernatural presence that pulses with violet energy. It's a beautifully composed cover that conveys a fairy-tale world where the threats are many and the heroines stand their ground anyway. If you've been following this 2013 Dynamite series, this ninth installment looks to deliver exactly the kind of atmospheric tension that makes the book such a compelling read.
