Justice League Dark #11

Felix Faust commands the foreground of Ryan Sook's cover, robed in purple and crackling with electric energy as he brandishes a serpent-headed staff — the cover copy makes his moment of triumph unmistakably clear: "On the quest for ultimate power… Faust Triumphant!" Behind him, a red-skinned figure is hurled violently aside while ghostly faces loom in the sickly green background, suggesting the full weight of dark forces in play. Jeff Lemire and Mikel Janín's New 52 run continues with "The Black Room, Part Three," delivering the kind of supernatural stakes that make Justice League Dark such a compelling corner of the DC universe.
