Deathblow #29

Deathblow #29 presents a raw, intense close-up of the battle-hardened Michael Cray — bloodied, bandanna-clad, and staring down the reader with those piercing blue eyes against a blazing red backdrop. Trevor Scott's cover work captures the character's grim resilience with real conviction, the tactical harness and streaks of blood across his face telling a story of punishment taken and shrugged off. With Tom Joyner and Brandon Choi steering the narrative in this 1996 Image series, this is a solid entry in one of the decade's grittier action titles.
