Deathblow #15

The cover of Deathblow #15 (April 1995) makes a strong visual statement, layering multiple close-up faces of the scarred, hard-edged protagonist across the composition — from a small inset portrait at the top to two larger, brooding renderings that fill the frame. Dominating the center is a sleek, angular piece of high-tech tactical eyewear, drawn with sharp metallic detail by cover artist Joel Thomas, lending the whole image a tense, covert-ops atmosphere. With interiors by Mel Rubi and a script from Brandon Choi, this mid-run issue delivers the gritty Wildstorm energy the series was built on.
