“Purgatory”

In "Purgatory," Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli deliver a harrowing chapter in Matt Murdock’s saga, where the stakes hit rock bottom. After a brutal confrontation with the Kingpin leaves him broken and abandoned, Matt is cast into the river—only to rise again, unseen and battered, as the city’s shadows close in. The cover by Mazzucchelli captures the weight of this moment, a visual echo of a man pushed beyond the edge.
