Darkhawk #37

Chris Powell stands at the center of this March 1994 Marvel issue, fists clenched and glowing Darkhawk amulet blazing at his chest, while a massive black-and-white vision of Venom looms menacingly above him. The stark contrast between the fully colored Powell and the shadowy symbiote presence makes for a genuinely arresting composition from cover artists Tod Smith and Ian Akin. "Operation: Symbiote Part Three: The Greater Evil!" promises exactly the kind of tense confrontation that cover delivers in spades.
