Heralds #3

The penultimate chapter of Marvel's 2010 limited series arrives with a cover by Jelena Djurdjevic that commands immediate attention — a blazing, flame-wreathed figure grips a luminous golden woman by the chin in a confrontation that crackles with tension and heat. The interplay of fire and molten gold across the two figures gives the image a painterly, almost mythological quality that perfectly suits a story called "Burning Up the Future." With Kathryn Immonen scripting and Tonči Zonjić on interior art, Heralds #3 of 5 keeps the momentum of this all-female Marvel team-up burning bright.
