“Circular Motion”

The helmeted visage of Dr. Fate looms close against a screaming blonde woman — her face contorted in anguish, glittering sparks dancing between them — in a cover that crackles with supernatural tension. Shawn McManus renders both figures with raw, unsettling expressiveness that gives this 1989 DC "New Format" issue an immediately striking presence on the shelf. J. M. DeMatteis and McManus were clearly pushing the series into genuinely uncomfortable emotional territory with "Circular Motion.
