Mighty Avengers #14

A massively muscled hero — his torn tank top and balled fists signaling he's already taken a hit — squares off against a colossal, glowing-eyed monster wreathed in fire and shadow on Greg Land's cover for this 2014 Marvel series. The exchange of speech bubbles ("You took your shot—" / "Now it's our turn!") makes clear the Mighty Avengers aren't backing down from whatever titanic threat looms before them. Writer Al Ewing and artist Salvador Larroca deliver what promises to be a bruising, high-stakes chapter in one of Marvel's most crowd-pleasing team books of the era.
