ElfQuest #9

Wendy and Richard Pini's beloved fantasy series continues in this April 1986 Marvel/Epic Comics edition, with a cover by Wendy Pini that puts the raw physicality of elf life front and center. Two fierce figures — a white-haired, pointed-eared elf armed with arrows and a powerfully built opponent — clash in a burst of golden energy and glinting star-light, fists raised and expressions locked in fierce determination. "The Quest Begins" promises exactly the kind of high-stakes adventure that made ElfQuest a fan favorite, and this cover delivers an immediate, visceral sense of what's at stake.
