Final Crisis Aftermath: Ink #4

The fourth chapter of this six-part Final Crisis Aftermath series presents a genuinely unsettling image from cover artist Brian Stelfreeze: a robed, skeletal figure of Death looms over a fallen man sprawled amid scattered money and glowing capsules, scythe raised and red eyes burning. The stark contrast between the greyscale setting and those vivid splashes of color gives the cover a cool, streetwise tension that suits the series' gritty tone. Eric Wallace and Fabrizio Fiorentino's "Desperate Hours" looks to push the story into some of its darkest territory yet.
