Hunter: The Age of Magic #25

The penultimate chapter of Vertigo's Hunter: The Age of Magic arrives with issue #25, and the cover by Chris Bachalo makes a striking impression — a bold, graphic composition in deep red, black, and white, with a bespectacled figure rendered in silhouette against swirling, almost hypnotic abstract patterns. The design feels simultaneously psychedelic and purposeful, perfectly capturing the series' blend of the mundane and the magical. With Dylan Horrocks writing and Richard Case on interior art, this 2003 Vertigo title continues to be one of the imprint's more thoughtfully crafted explorations of a world where magic is very much alive.
