Maverick #6

Maverick #6 from February 1998 puts the series' mercenary hero in serious danger, with the cover — penciled by Jim Cheung and inked by Andrew Pepoy — depicting a wild-maned, feral figure gripping Maverick's armored form with ferocious intensity, the golden-orange palette giving the confrontation an almost savage, animalistic heat. The inset portrait in the corner offers a cool contrast, showing Maverick upright and battle-ready in his distinctive gold-and-rust armor. With a story titled "Hunters," this issue promises a tense, predator-versus-prey dynamic that feels very much at home in Marvel's grittier late-'90s corner of the universe.
