Martian Manhunter #11

Tom Mandrake's sweeping cover for issue #11 conjures a vision of ancient, alien grandeur — a colossal green face of the Martian Manhunter looms over a sprawling Martian cityscape of spired pink towers and rocky mesas, while sleek golden spacecraft glide through a crimson sky. The tagline "Back to the Future!" hints at a journey tied to J'onn J'onzz's Martian heritage, perfectly complementing the story title "Pilgrims." With John Ostrander writing and Bryan Hitch and Paul Neary handling interior art, this October 1999 issue promises the kind of thoughtful, myth-steeped storytelling this series does so well.
