Dawn: Three Tiers #4

Joseph Michael Linsner's Dawn: Three Tiers reaches its fourth installment with a cover that puts Dawn front and center — crimson-haired, adorned with a spiked crown and ornate skull-decorated armor skirt, her tattooed skin and blood-dripped hand lending her an air of fierce, otherworldly royalty. A coiled chain trails from her grasp, and the clean white background makes every intricate detail of Linsner's linework pop with striking clarity. If you've been following this six-part Image series in 2004, this issue — "A Fool For Love" — promises to keep the mood as beautifully intense as its cover suggests.
