Martian Manhunter #13

Two massive faces dominate this striking cover — J'onn J'onzz in his familiar green Martian form on the left, and a darker, reddish counterpart with a glowing symbol on its forehead on the right — a duality that immediately raises questions about identity and alien nature. Tom Mandrake's bold, up-close composition fills every inch of the cover with brooding intensity, rendered in deep shadows and otherworldly color. Spinning out of the pages of JLA, writer John Ostrander and Mandrake kick off "Rings of Saturn" with this December 1999 opener, promising a four-part journey that looks anything but simple for the Last Martian.
