ElfQuest: The Final Quest #18

A bloodied hand thrusts a gleaming key toward the viewer, the massive, torch-flanked doors of an ancient structure looming ominously behind it — it's a cover that asks urgent questions without saying a word. Wendy and Richard Pini's long-running saga reaches its eighteenth chapter of The Final Quest, and this image captures the weight of a hard-won moment: whatever lies beyond those doors, getting here clearly came at a cost. Dark Horse continues to give this beloved series the space it deserves, and this striking image is a fine reason to pick up the issue.
