Identity Crisis #7

What's left when the costumes outlast the heroes who wore them? Michael Turner and Aspen Studios deliver a quietly haunting cover for this 2005 finale to Brad Meltzer and Rags Morales's series — a row of empty superhero suits hanging in somber stillness, recognizable by their colors and symbols: Batman's dark cape, the Flash's scarlet uniform, Wonder Woman's red and gold, Superman's crest, Green Arrow's quiver and bow, and Hawkman's great feathered wings. Subtitled "Truth & Consequences," issue four's stark, elegiac image captures the weight of the series beautifully, letting the absent figures speak louder than any battle scene could.
