George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones #14

Dynamite Entertainment's faithful comics adaptation of George R. R. Martin's beloved saga reaches issue #14, and this cover by Mike S. Miller makes an immediate impression — a dark-haired, richly cloaked figure seated upon the fearsome Iron Throne, its countless fused blades fanning out behind him in deep crimson shadow. The seated figure carries an air of uneasy authority, one hand bandaged, his expression brooding and watchful. With writing by Martin and Daniel Abraham and interior art by Tommy Patterson, this 2013 series continues to bring Westeros to the comics page with real care and ambition.
