Deathblow #24

Three heavily armed figures dominate this cover — Deathblow at the foreground gripping dual glowing guns, Grifter at his side, and a wild-eyed enemy combatant above them hurling flaming projectiles — all set against a DNA-helix backdrop that gives the intense standoff a distinctly sci-fi edge. Trevor Scott's cover pencils and inks crackle with kinetic energy, capturing the chaos of the fifth chapter of "Brothers-In-Arms" with gritty confidence. If you've been following this 1996 Image run, issue #24 looks like a chapter where the tension hits a boiling point.
