Hornsby & Halo #2

The second issue of this Image/Ghost Machine series wastes no time making its celestial-versus-infernal premise visually thrilling — the cover by Peter Snejbjerg shows a red-suited devil girl and a glowing, winged angel teaming up atop a flaming motorcycle, charging headlong into a snarling horde of demons. The contrast between the duo's energy and the monstrous mob bearing down on them captures exactly the kind of odd-couple family dynamic that writer Peter J. Tomasi and the creative team are clearly having a great time with. John Kalisz's colors — blazing oranges and cool blues — make the whole cover pop with the sort of vivid personality that earns a spot on your pull list.
