Danger Street #9

Two tiny silhouettes clash in a sword fight atop the rain-lashed Green Team Building while lightning tears through a stormy night sky — it's a breathtakingly cinematic image that makes the city below feel vast and indifferent. Tom King and Jorge Fornés keep raising the stakes in this DC Black Label series, and with Chapter 9 subtitled "Doctor Fate," the supernatural undercurrent running through Danger Street feels ready to surge to the surface. Dave Stewart's electric blues and the delicate warmth of the building's lit windows give Fornés's cover a moody depth that rewards a long look.
