Maestros #3

Steve Skroce's densely imaginative cover for Maestros #3 plunges readers straight into chaos: a terrified young man is seized in the crushing grip of a massive, skull-helmeted creature, the two of them engulfed in a writhing sea of bizarre alien fauna and crumbling architecture against a stark crimson sky. Dave Stewart's coloring brings every grotesque texture to vivid life, from the beast's barnacled hide to the squirming tangle of creatures packed into every corner of the frame. If this Image series' brand of dark fantasy has been on your radar, this issue's cover alone makes a compelling case for jumping in.
