Ghosted #18

A pale, green-skinned woman in tactical gear aims a handgun directly at the viewer while a white bird takes flight just above the barrel — it's a striking, tension-filled image from cover artist Dan Panosian that balances menace with an unexpected moment of fragile beauty. The graffiti-covered wall behind her adds a gritty urban energy that feels right at home in this supernatural crime series from writer Joshua Williamson and artist Vladimir Krstić Laci. Issue #18 arrives at what's clearly a charged moment in the story, and Miroslav Mrva's cool, eerie color palette makes this one of the more visually memorable covers in the run.
