Grayson #18

Three iterations of Dick Grayson cascade down Mikel Janín's striking cover — each armed and intense, suggesting a man fractured across versions of himself, set against a bold graphic backdrop of webs, a white owl, a spider, and a swarm of pale bats. The symbolic imagery feels charged with the spy-thriller tension that has defined this series, and the story title "Fight Harder" leaves little doubt that Grayson is being pushed to his absolute limit. With Lanzing and Kelly writing and a full art team bringing it to life, this May 2016 issue looks like a compelling chapter in Dick Grayson's life beyond the cape.
