ElfQuest: The Final Quest #24

Wendy and Richard Pini's beloved saga charges toward its conclusion with this 2018 installment from Dark Horse. The cover, penciled and inked by Wendy Pini, assembles a striking ensemble of elves — a white-maned warrior raising a blade, a winged figure in flowing teal and green, a dark-complexioned elf adorned with feathers and jewels, a golden-curled elf kneeling beside a growling wolf, and several more companions flanking them — all set against a fiery orange backdrop of silhouetted figures, while two luminous faces hover ghostlike above the group. With The Final Quest deep into its endgame, this issue promises the kind of richly emotional, beautifully rendered storytelling that has defined ElfQuest for decades.
