Maestro: World War M #4

The penultimate chapter of Maestro: World War M arrives with a cover that makes an immediate impression — the gray-bearded, green-skinned Maestro rides a colossal, fang-filled creature across a crumbling cityscape, driving a massive spear downward with both fists in a show of brutal, commanding force. Carlos Pacheco and Rafael Fonteriz deliver a dynamic composition that captures the sheer scale of the chaos unfolding around this tyrant Hulk, with ruined buildings below hinting at a world already brought to its knees. Peter David and Germán Peralta continue their grim saga here, and if the cover is any measure, "Part Four: The Last Straw" promises the series' tension cranked up to a fitting pitch.
