Doctor Fate #3

The Helm of Nabu takes center stage on this striking cover from Paul Rivoche — the ancient golden mask filling the frame in an extreme close-up, its surface cracked and scorched against a backdrop of flame. It's a quietly unsettling image that suggests the legendary artifact itself may be under serious strain, perfectly suited to the third chapter of "The Curse." With Christopher Golden writing and Don Kramer on interior art, this 2003 miniseries offers a thoughtful, darker take on one of DC's most mystically rich characters.
