Hellblazer #92

Paul Jenkins and Sean Phillips kick off the five-part "Critical Mass" arc with a cover that immediately signals something deeply unsettling — a grinning child and a gaunt elderly figure loom in sickly blue shadow, both sharing the same glowing amber eyes, while a familiar trench-coated silhouette of John Constantine watches warily from the margins. Sean Phillips's painted cover work here is quietly chilling, letting dread build through composition rather than spectacle. If this opening image is any indication, "Critical Mass" is shaping up to be one of Hellblazer's more atmospheric and genuinely disturbing chapters of 1995.
