Dexter #1

Marvel's adaptation of Jeff Lindsay's darkly charming antihero arrives in style with this 2013 launch, illustrated by Dalibor Talajić. Mike Del Mundo's cover art sets the tone perfectly — a smiling man in a deep red suit raises a cocktail glass while sporting a blood-splattered "Hello, my name is Dexter" name tag, his face cropped just enough to feel deliberately, unsettlingly anonymous. It's a deceptively social, almost playful image that captures exactly the kind of cheerful menace Dexter fans have come to love.
