Icon #41

From the Milestone imprint comes this late-series entry in the acclaimed Icon run, with cover art by Wilfred Santiago. Against a backdrop of torn, blood-spattered newspaper clippings, a grim-faced Icon looms in his red and gold costume, cape draped across his broad shoulders, alongside a determined young woman in a blue suit and leather jacket — the tagline "This Time, It's Murder!" giving the pairing a distinctly noir charge. McDuffie, Bright, and Tanghal continue "Blood Reign" with Chapter 4, "The Third Generation," promising the kind of grounded, socially engaged superhero storytelling that made this Milestone series stand apart in 1997.
