MaxiMage #6

Mid-1990s Image energy is on full display in MaxiMage #6, where cover artists Fabio Laguna and Norm Rapmund depict the red-haired heroine in her white costume — green gem at her brow, clawed gauntlets raised — reacting with urgency as a massive green, vine-like creature looms from the right. The swirling mist and crumbling environment around her give the whole image a tense, otherworldly atmosphere that makes "Mother's Day" sound like anything but a quiet holiday. William Messner-Loebs and the full creative team bring their considerable talents to this corner of the Image universe, and this cover alone promises high-stakes confrontation.
