ElfQuest #15

ElfQuest #15 brings the dramatic cover tagline "The Quest Usurped!" to vivid life, with Wendy Pini's cover art depicting two elves riding atop a massive, dark-feathered bird creature against a blazing red sky. A glowing orb in the upper right reveals a shimmering castle within, while a second ethereal sphere in the lower left holds ghostly elf figures — and a smaller rider can be glimpsed in the background, adding to the sense of a grand, sweeping adventure. With Wendy and Richard Pini steering both story and art in 1983, this independent fantasy series continued to demonstrate why it captured the hearts of readers far beyond the mainstream comics world.
