Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files: Ghoul Goblin #1

Dynamite's 2013 series launch brings Jim Butcher's supernatural detective Harry Dresden to a rain-soaked graveyard, where the cover — penciled by Ardian Syaf and inked by Guillermo Ortego — depicts him lunging forward through a downpour, staff crackling with magical energy, a pentacle amulet at his chest and Celtic crosses looming in the stormy darkness behind him. The tension and urgency in his expression set the mood perfectly for a story with "Ghoul Goblin" in the title. With Jim Butcher and Mark Powers on writing duties and Joseph Cooper handling the interior art, fans of the Dresden Files universe have every reason to pick this one up.
