George Pérez's Sirens #3

The third chapter of George Pérez's ambitious BOOM! Studios miniseries arrives with a cover — penciled by Pérez and inked by Bob Wiacek — that practically erupts off the page, showcasing the full ensemble of Sirens charging forward through smoke, fire, and rubble. A red-haired warrior dominates the foreground with war paint and fierce intensity, while her teammates surround her in a spectacular cascade: a sword-wielding golden-armored figure soaring above, a blue-caped sorceress crackling with lightning, a water-manipulating heroine, a tiny knife-throwing fighter, and several more warriors armed with blades, guns, and elemental powers. With issue three of six now in hand, "The Last Stand?" promises the kind of sprawling, detail-rich storytelling that only Pérez — with Scott Koblish and colorist Leonardo Paciarotti — can deliver.
