George R.R. Martin's A Clash of Kings #16

Dynamite's adaptation of George R. R. Martin's A Clash of Kings reaches its sixteenth issue, and the cover — pencilled and inked by Mike S. Miller — makes a striking impression: a confident knight in gleaming green-and-gold armor stands at center, while a dark-haired woman in blue looks on with visible unease, shadowy figures looming in the misty background behind them. The tension between the knight's composed authority and her anxious expression hints at the political intrigue at the heart of Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire saga. With interior work from writer Landry Q. Walker, artist Mel Rubi, colorist Ivan Nunes, and letterer Tom Napolitano, this 2019 chapter keeps the acclaimed comics adaptation moving at full steam.
