Mega Man #42

Part two of the "Legends of the Blue Bomber" arc, this 2014 Archie Comics issue puts Mega Man squarely in the crosshairs — and Patrick Spaziante's cover makes that tension immediately felt. A menacing, red-eyed robot adversary dominates the foreground with blade-like angular armor, while a wide-eyed Mega Man looks on from behind, the subtitle "--Hunted!" leaving little doubt about who's doing the chasing. Spaziante handles the full cover art duties here, and the dramatic close-up composition pulls you right into the pursuit.
