Doctor Fate #27

A woman in a pink dress tumbles helplessly through space, surrounded on all sides by a ring of grinning, golden Doctor Fate helmets that close in around her like a nightmarish chorus — it's an unsettling and visually arresting image from cover artist Vincent Giarrano. The story inside, "Employment," comes from the creative team of writer William Messner-Loebs and artist Vincent Giarrano, with inks by Peter Gross. This 1991 DC series continues to explore the stranger, more surreal corners of its mystical hero's world, and this cover makes a compelling case for picking it up.
