Deadly Class #13

From Rick Remender, Wes Craig, and Lee Loughridge, this thirteenth issue of Deadly Class announces itself with quiet menace — a skull-like mask, dotted with a cross pattern and a single dripping tear, looms out of total darkness with dark hair swept back behind it. Craig's minimalist cover design strips everything down to that unsettling face and a thin red needle-drop of color below, making the image feel both intimate and deeply threatening. If you've been following this series set in 1988, this stark, beautifully crafted cover promises the tension hasn't let up one bit.
