Darkminds #4

Chapter 4 of Darkminds — subtitled "Deadly Intentions" — arrives from Image/Dreamwave with a cover by Pat Lee and Alvin Lee that pulls you straight into a neon-drenched cyberpunk cityscape. Dominating the composition are a brooding, green-lit male figure looming large in the background, an armed woman in tactical gear standing her ground to the right, and a squad of blue-armored operatives crouched and armed in the foreground, weapons raised and ready. The manga-influenced linework and moody palette make this 1998 series a vivid standout in Image's late-'90s sci-fi lineup.
