Excalibur #27

A caped, grimacing figure leaps across a city street brandishing a sword while a long-haired woman in green robes sprawls in the foreground — and in the background, the rest of Excalibur scatters through the chaos as the cover boldly asks: "Excalibur Meets… the Nth Man?!" The kinetic energy of this 1990 issue is immediately striking, with Chris Wozniak's cover pencils and inks packing the urban scene with motion and menace. With Chris Claremont writing and Barry Windsor-Smith on interior art, inked by Bill Sienkiewicz, "Reel People" promises a creative lineup that any fan of this era would find genuinely hard to resist.
