ElfQuest #20

Marvel's Epic Comics line brought Wendy and Richard Pini's beloved world of elves to a wider audience, and issue #20 — "Fine Feathers" — delivers a cover that crackles with urgency. Wendy Pini's artwork puts a white-haired elf woman at the center of a fierce struggle, her hands blazing with fire as she clashes with a figure in red while a smaller elf cowers nearby, an elder scrambles clear above them, and a shadowy female figure watches from the left — all with a looming, flame-wreathed presence dominating the background. It's a vivid, kinetic snapshot of the tension and rich ensemble storytelling that made ElfQuest such a compelling series in 1987.
