Howard the Duck #5

Howard the Duck finds himself surrounded by an extraordinary crowd on Joe Quinones's cover for this 2016 Chip Zdarsky-written issue — the Thing, Rocket Raccoon, Drax, a silver cosmic figure, and several other Marvel heroes all surge forward in a burst of purple energy, with Howard front and center looking as grumpy and determined as ever, flanked by two fellow ducks. It's a wonderfully chaotic assembly that perfectly captures the absurdist cosmic energy of "Collect Call to Arms!" — a title that promises some very unlikely teamwork ahead.
