Marvel Fanfare #54

Marvel Fanfare #54 closes out "When Knights Were Bold… An Epic of the Crusades" with a dramatic part three of three, and the cover by Tod Smith (pencils) and Chris Ivy (inks) delivers the medieval spectacle that promise demands. A helmeted knight on horseback charges forward lance in hand, winged cloak billowing, while a massive, roaring demonic face looms in a swirl of flame behind him. It's a striking image that captures the collision of chivalric heroism and supernatural menace at the heart of this Crusades-era tale.
