Floaters #5

The five-issue Floaters miniseries from Dark Horse wraps up with a cover that pulls no punches — a hulking, wild-eyed brute has a dark-haired figure locked in a crushing bear-hug, the two of them tumbling through a sky dotted with clouds against a vivid orange-red backdrop. A "Sky High" canister spinning loose in the chaos adds an extra sense of freefall to the whole frantic scene. Sean Fagan, Cinqué Lee, and Lance Tooks deliver a finale cover with real energy, making this 1994 mature-readers series go out on a genuinely gripping visual note.
