Fire Power #2

Chris Samnee's cover for Fire Power #2 pulls you straight into the tension: a young man in a fighting stance channels a glowing burst of fire power in his hands, while three companions — a determined woman, a younger girl, and a frightened boy — press close behind him against a dark, shadowy backdrop. The warm amber and crimson palette, brought to life by Matthew Wilson's colors, makes that central light feel like the only thing standing between the group and whatever lurks in the darkness. Robert Kirkman and Samnee's Skybound series looks every bit as gripping here as its premise promises.
