Journey into Mystery #652

This 2013 Marvel NOW! entry in the long-running Journey into Mystery series puts the spotlight squarely on Sif, depicted here in striking crimson robes and winged helmet, sword in hand and ready for battle. Towering behind her is Beta Ray Bill — announced right on the cover with his return — hammer raised and crackling with lightning against a deep starfield backdrop, his alien visage unmistakable. Jeff Dekal's cover work pairs these two formidably, setting a charged, dynamic tone for Kathryn Immonen, Valerio Schiti, and Jordie Bellaire's "Seeds of Destruction.
