Darkminds #6

Three figures dominate this striking Image Comics cover from 1998 — a pale, bald figure looming ominously in the background, a dark-haired man in a white coat aiming a pistol directly at the viewer, and a sharp-eyed woman in the foreground clutching her own weapon against a glowing green, circuit-board-textured backdrop. The title "Opposing Forces" promises exactly what the cover delivers: tension between characters who clearly aren't on the same side. Pat Lee and Alvin Lee's cover work channels a sleek manga-influenced aesthetic that made Darkminds one of the more visually distinct series of its era.
