King: Mandrake the Magician #1

Dynamite's 2015 launch of King: Mandrake the Magician arrives with a stunning cover by Darwyn Cooke that captures the sorcerer in full mystical splendor — seated cross-legged and levitating amid swirling purple clouds, dressed immaculately in top hat and tails, a red rose at his lapel, and luminous orbs hovering in each gloved hand. White doves spiral around him against a star-dotted sky, while a hypnotic spiral and ghostly linked rings frame his calm, commanding presence. With Roger Langridge writing and Jeremy Treece handling art, inks, and colors, this opening issue promises a rich, imaginative take on one of comics' most enduring illusionists.
