Green Lantern: New Guardians #11

Part of DC's New 52 initiative, this September 2012 issue promises "The Wrath of Larfleeze!" — and Tyler Kirkham and Matt Banning's cover delivers on that threat in vivid, orange-drenched style. A massive, snarling orange construct beast dominates the scene, with multiple figures — including a White Lantern and what appears to be a fierce female warrior — caught in the chaos of battle against it. Tony Bedard's "Operation: Agent Orange" sets the stage for the New Guardians going up against one of the DC Universe's most unpredictable and possessive forces.
