JSA #86

Three JSA members stand their ground against a thundering charge of spectral horsemen — glowing-eyed phantom riders bearing down from the fog before a medieval castle — as pink energy crackles overhead from a fiery airborne figure. The cover, penciled and inked by George Pérez, captures the eerie collision of ghostly supernatural threat and superhero resolve with his trademark kinetic detail. Paul Levitz's "Where Highwaymen Rode" sounds like a story steeped in history and haunting, and this 2006 issue makes a compelling case to find out what happens next.
