Dark Horse Presents #103

Dark Horse Presents #103 spotlights Mr. Painter on a striking cover by Stan Shaw — a powerfully built, grimacing figure in a purple jacket lunges forward clutching a glowing, ornate object, paintbrushes in hand, framed dramatically within a gilded picture frame. Shaw's bold linework and moody yellow-and-purple palette give the whole image a pulpy, kinetic energy that suits the second chapter of "That's Mr. Painter to You" perfectly. As a bonus, this 1995 anthology issue promises an exclusive, never-before-seen Jack Kirby centerfold, making it a genuinely compelling package.
