Excalibur #117

A menacing yellow demon looms at the center of this February 1998 issue, its clawed hands spread wide as it proclaims "There is peace only in DEATH!" — while a silver-limbed figure dives dramatically from above and a blonde woman and dark-haired man cower below. Ben Raab scripts "Amendments" with interior art by Mel Rubi and Rob Hunter, but it's the striking cover by John Cassaday that sets a genuinely ominous tone against that sickly green backdrop. A great chapter in Excalibur's late-era run for anyone who enjoys their superhero teams facing something truly unsettling.
