Edenwood #2

Tony S. Daniel's dark fantasy series continues with Edenwood #2 from Image Comics, and this cover alone makes a compelling case for the whole endeavor. A sword-wielding warrior in ornate black-and-gold spiked armor holds a skull-pierced-by-a-blade before them, while a pale young woman and a horde of hollow-eyed, open-mouthed creatures press in from the shadowy background. Daniel's linework is intricate and atmospheric, delivering the kind of lavish detail that makes you linger on every inch of the image before you've even cracked the spine.
